How good are Teins?

I'm still looking for a new set of springs and some friends suggested Tien springs over the Eibach prokit/sportline set. Both offer the drop that i'm looking for, but the Teins are almost $100.00 cheaper. I'm looking for quality, so which one is better quality wise?

I've heard very good things about teins... havent seen any complaints about them .. I'm getting a set of Tein S-Techs myself after the winter is over... Eibach is also a great brand but since you can save 100 bucks.. might as well just go with the tein springs.. cuz they are both good quality

I like Eibach for springs....If I was to go coilover though Tein would be my choice.

Ive riden in an RSX with the tien s tech springs and i was surprised at how it felt. A nice firm ride, but not too harsh. I personally have Eibachs on my car and i feel that they are complete garbage. I think that there way too soft. Just my opinion though.

I have been to the eibach factory her in California, pretty nice tour of the whole place. Any how I came out of that place knowing that eibach does springs and coilovers for most brands including "tein". Eibach builts them and at final production then they slap other brand names on it, including color. So which ever way you look at it, looks like it goes both ways. Both springs are of good quality.
