2g cl/Accord 98-02 Tein SS Coilovers
These coilovers are still in amazing condition, even though they have 50k miles. The only real damage is on one of the rubber boots for the front, which is torn.

Pics:






And here they are on my car, to show how slammed you could be.



Price : $500 plus shipping, Local pickup welcomed.

These cost $1200 New, and in the excellent condition these are in they are a steal.

The Tein SS Coilovers without pillow-ball tophats were not sold with tophats. You are supposed to use your stock top hats.

I realize that the mileage seems high for the coilovers, but these are truly still in excellent condition both in looks and performance. Tein also provides affordable overhauling services should these ever start to go bad, which is not in the foreseeable future.

I took these off of my car because I am selling my cl soon, not because I was dissatisfied with them in any way.

For now I will keep the price at $500 plus shipping.

Yes these work on both 2g tl's and cl's. Sorry I forgot to post that.

A new boot from Tein can probably be easily acquired. Torn boots are also a common thing, certainly not the end of the world for a coilover. I cant imagine it costing more than a few dollars if you wanted to replace it.

You probably dont even need to get it from Tein. Im sure a local auto parts store will have something that fits.

I really am amazed how there is NO RUST on this thing. Considering you are from VA also... not bad... but 50k is a lot isn't it?

I knocked the salt and dirt off of them every once and a while to keep them looking fresh. 50k is a good amount but they will work a lot longer, and they're rebuild-able.

Stock ones. Tein and other high performance suspension manufacturers make products that are far more robust than stock shocks.
