The dust boots will still tear and the noise is still there for me on slow turns, or while backing out of my drive way. Normal driving is great though. The car is very responsive and feels good on hard driving.

Most people just cut the dust boots in half, so that it doesn't hang loosely between the springs any more.

Just FYI, some guy in the Retail section is selling the Tein SS for $995 shipped and the Tein Basic for $895 shipped. Good deals that I would have jumped on 2 years ago.

I remember someone was selling B&G for like $850 or something like that in the marketplace forum, but I can't seem to find it anymore. Maybe it was from Circa X.

Much love to you too. I'll return the favor. [/QUOTE]
So just wondering did you order your set yet and how much did you get it for? Someone did write that the B&Gs were less comfortable then the Teins from experience, but he wanted to tuck his 19s. Therefore, he traded his Teins for the B&Gs. But maybe since he dropped his car more, the car rode more roughly, so who knows...haha. I bought the B&Gs long ago before Teins were out, but if I was to buy a set-up now, I think I would lean towards the Tein SS.
