Those with Tein S-tech and Goldlines

Anyone try S-Tech and Goldline springs? Not one or the other. Someone who has had both on their car with stock shocks. Which rides better? I now have S-Techs on my car. I also have a set of Goldlines I am debating on putting in. The Golds will lower a little more. Will the ride be harsher?stiffer? I also have the X-brace, Neuspeed front upper, 19mm rsx bar, generic lower and upper rear bars, and SPC LCA's
Thanks for the help.

this doesnt answer your question, but out of curiosity how do the s techs feel on the stock shocks and how long have you had em on? i got some s techs the way. im gonna switch out the oem shocks eventually though.

I like them alot. They are more 'sporty'. But they won't knock your fillings out. I have had them for about 5-6 months.

i would think goldline would blow your stock struts much much faster than the tein's. Goldlines are lower which WILL probably sacrifice your better ride, and with how low mine (goldlines) are, I would think they would blow very fast on stock struts. I have tokicos, so I know that isnt the answer you want, but that should be pretty accurate.

tein-not as low, nicer ride, struts should last a little longer
goldline-lower, usually harsher bumpier ride, should blow struts faster, very good springs though

Hope this helps

i have goldline springs. 1.75 drop settled to a nice 2 inche drop..and my car rides great.cant complain one bit. my shocks are still fine.its not no harsh bumpy ride. i know my friend had the tein springs and his shocks blew, but mine are still fine. ive had them for 6 months now and not a problem.
