Ordered my new coilovers

Well I ordered my new Tien Basics. I was looking at the flex's but since alot of people on the board can only tell a difference if its turned completely one way or the other i figured i save a few hundred and get the basics. Hopefully I can have them soon. I want to get them installed. Can't wait. Hopefully they give me better spring rates than my custom setup...

Be sure to post pics of the drop. I don't know for sure how much I want to drop my car once the coilovers get in... we'll see I guess.

I'm having mine done at a garage, it'll be wise to watch them install it to let them know how low I want the drop correct?

I thought you had it lowered before already? Anyways, do you know about the Eibach gathering with 300+ people happening on Sunday May 7th? It'd be cool if you can make it . And def post some pictures

Are you concerned with noise issues from the TEINs? I heard many forum members having noise issues with them so I am waiting for Tanabes.

The only noise issues with Teins are those of the knuckleheads who install them incorrectly. We have installed dozens of them with nary an issue. Improper installation has given Tein a bad rap, when there really are no issues with the Tein products.

You don't hear about noises from Tanabes because barely anyone has them. They are both really good coilovers.
