Tein SS or B+G's?

Alright, its tax return season and since suspension seems to be the most expensive mod. area i decieded to do away with my goldlines and get a full coilover system. i did a search so please dont flame! i know both have sweet ride quality but wanted to know a couple more things. i plan on getting some 17" wheels and possibly a body kit in the future so i dont need a massive 3" drop, a 2"-2 1/2" will be more than enough. do both lower that far? i thought i remember people saying that Tein SS will only go to a certain point but i dont remember what it was. also i noticed that a lot of people have tein SS and not a single complaint or problem, are B+G's the same quality?

The Teins drop 2" all around. The B&G's can drop 2.5" all around. Pm Reddraggon333 if you have any questions about the Teins and pm Mex if you have any questions on the B&G's. Their very helpful guys.

I give B+Gs a thumbs up.. aside from the initial clanging i got when steering (which is now fixed, check the thread I posted just moments ago) i love how they handle. one complaint is that the threads on the sleeve are very thin, you have to rotate them many times to make a noticable difference in height. also, and this probably goes for any coilover system-- adjusting the rears are a PAIN with the lower control arm and the brake/ABS lines all in the way. but yeah, for B+Gs
