Tein S. Techs

Has anyone ever heard problems with S. Techs? For example rubbing/sagging in the rear on a sedan? I want to use them to drop my car, but if they sag...i might decide otherwise. Any help is good.

For the first month or so the rear looked a little bit lower than the front. Then it settled in and it looks even now. I've only had them for about 6 months. I don't think they're a good idea if you have a heavy stereo.

I'm on stock struts which look like they have been replaced. The ride is almost stock. Not bumpy at all.

I have these on the stock si rims (15") and they are great. Ride quality is sporty, yet comfortable, whilst the look is exactly what I wanted.

As far as having a stereo in the back, and the size of your rims, it may sag more than you'd like, and possibly rub. Having a full passenger load atop my 15's, I have not rubbed at all.

i have the H techs which are a step below the s techs! H techs only lower an inch but so far the ride quality is great! The fronts haven't settled in yet but that is expected with almost any lowering springs.
