I've had SS for about a month now, but I haven't heard not even a single noise. As for the settings, I've set it to 10 in front and 14 in rear. The lowest setting that I tried is 3 in front and 5 in rear. To me 10 and 14 combination is not too stiff but stiff enough for city driving.

hey does anyone have pictures of there TL's with the tein's on all the way up ?? I am trying to figure out if i want to get the tein suspension over just getting springs and shocks and want to see the differences , im not looking for a slammed look ,so i wanted to see what they look like with the coils all the way up..Im basicly looking for a 1.5 - 1.7 inch drop..I have owned tein's in my last car and i thought they were well worth the money..Any help would be appreciated ..

that happens a lot - i just replaced the shocks in my dad's camry and the front right squeaks sometimes - all you need to do is take it out and put it in again properly , make sure it has nice fitment- then you'll be straight
