Tein S-Techs Springs

Sup guys, I just bought some used Tein S-Techs Springs and I would like to see pics if anybody has them on with either 18" or 19" rims. Since I'm really considering getting 19"s, but I just dont want to deal with all the hassle of rolling my fenders, rubbing etc... I want to see how it would look on my car before I go thru the process of installing them. Please post pictures.

Thanks

Here's mine with tein s-tech and 19s. I got the rims used with the tires (235/35) but if I had a choice, I would go one size bigger on the tire. I have no rubbing issue with the current set up and the ride isn't bad. Wish the tire was little thicker.



There are more pic if you search them.

I'm very impressed with the ride quality. I've had them on for two weeks and I have no complaints

^^^ Stop whoring that ghetto-ass drop of yours!


<teehee>

I agree. You can't go wrong with the S-Tech springs. Not too low where you need to drive over everything sideways, but low enough to rid yourself of that gawd-awful wheel gap that plagues most cars. Ride comfort isn't compromised either.

Someone here has mentioned it and that's the first time I realized in 7 month that I own this car.That was a shocker for me.

side molding? I didn't know TL's came with side molding? IMO it's not my taste.

Anyways, I'm getting some S. tech's and the ride quality should be nice (at least, as nice as it can be in boston) from what my friends tell me. I'm rolling on 245\40\19's so I don't think they would rub.

Side moldings are hideous, sorry man.
They are an option on all Hondas, OEM aftermarket for the TL
