Tein SS or B&G Coilovers??!?!?!?!
I need your guys opinion asap!
B&G's or Tein SS?
Please voice your opinions on both coilovers and why you would get that one.
Ive heard Teins tend to rust in the long run from several different people.
B&G can go quite a bit lower than the tein SS.
I can get both of them at quite a low cost so price isnt an issue...Any comments and opinions are welcome

I have not heard of Tein's rusting while I have seen B&Gs rusting pretty badly...
Tein's can go quite low...not as low...but low...especially if you have a bodykit, there is no use for how low B&Gs can go.
I have tein's at my house now. They are very high quality but I cannot comment on the ride as they are not yet installed.

they ride on Teins is great, i havent had any problems with mine and havent heard about rusting and if they do you have a warranty for them. I want a body kit soon so i didnt see the point in haveing to go too loww so i decided on Teins. If i were to do it all again i would still choice Teins over B&G coilovers

For those of you that have Teins, if you were to put it at the lowest setting do you think it will be lower than 2"? would it be lower or higher than neuspeed race springs? if Teins go low enough then i will probably go with them. i just want to be sure theyre low enough for me

ya how much can you get them for...
well there seems to be conflicting info for teins.. teins website says up to -3.8". but ya some people with them say it only drops 2". i think its cause tein offers different springs with their coilovers. just make sure you get the right ones and you'll be fine.
but ya any suspension can and will rust. even stock. so its no surprise that tein or b&g does. i personally prefer teins cause of the adjustable damper.

B&Gs are great for handling, but the ride is pretty harsh when you have passengers or cargo in the back. The auto-adjusting dampners work against you in this case.

"tein go low enough.
i have no gap or 1 finger gap on rear. and i can lower more.."
Are you on stock wheels or do you have rims? If so what size rims do you have? because i will be using 15 or 16" wheels with low profile tires.
