I have searched all over the web and can not find anyone running these springs!

H. Tech is for the "luxury" car... I believe, its going to be like driving an old caddy or buick. I run S. Tech's and I love them!

No, I already contacted Tein about them. They are stiffer than stock springs and will reduce body roll. I saw a FEW 350Z guys runnign them and they liked them. But there cars are just a tad bit different than ours.

Of cource, anything is going to be stiffer and lower then stock. But they are not as stiff as the S. Tech or else I would have gotten them. You can see the spring rates on the website even.

Oh yeah! I hate buying stuff for my car and then regreting it later. My 90 civic hatch is dropped with sleeved coilovers and I bought KYB GR-2's for it, thinking they were made for dropped cars cause they were KYB's and then found out I bought stock replacements after they blew in 4 months. Tokico Blues on now and riding great. :lol

And I appreciate everyones help

Yes but they are not going to ride soft like some Cadillac or some Buik Regal. They are goign to be stiffer that stock, give me less body roll, and better suspension performance. I am not looking for a low drop do to the crappy roads here and the fact that my car sees street time and no track time so I want to be comfy driving as well.

My mind is not 100% made up as Mr. Clark knows.
