Question Tein S-tech or H-tech on my TL?

Whats up fellas?

Just bought my 04 TL Automatic PWP. I really dont know much about them my first Acura . Just wondering can you guys help me out I want to lower my TL to look more agressive. I was planning on getting the Tein S-tech or H-tech. Which do you guys prefer? Will they effect my ride quality if so how? Thanks. And I appreciate all the help.

-Jason

If you replace the springs with Tein H-Tech, you not going to notice a big difference in ride quality. Probaly slightly firmer with a nice drop range of 1.5-1.75. You'll be happy with the Tein H-Tech.

Here's our buddy KING OF PAIN's (Mike) ride...

Dropped on Tein H. Tech with RonJon Insyper 19x8.5 with 245/35/19 Toyo T1-R Tires...he says no rubbing at all and he likes the ride. I like going by Mike's opinion because he's an older guy, unlike me, the younger guy that used to drive a civic that was slammed.... He says the ride is good, and i totally believe him because if you ask me, a car that is bouncey to him, probably will be damn good to me. All in all, his ride is phat

Thanks Revolution.

The drop was about 1 inch all around and the ride is still good, no bound. I had the HTechs with stock wheels and the ride was slightly more firm than stock. I noticed a bigger change when I went to 19s. Still good for this old man. Here's some more pixs.

i'm on s-techs with Koni's.....no complaints here but I've never ridden on the H's. you definitely have to watch out for those potholes or hitting abrupt height changes on some freeways/highways though especially if your sitting on larger rims.

I Just ordered 18" Enkei DM5's (hence the name) I had them before on a 90 Integ 4D that looked sweet, but it was pretty slammed. does anyone know if a simple 1'' drop will cover the gap difference. I dont want to mess with Camber if I dont have to and dont want a real bumpy ride.
