My question to you is, are the tein basics progressive or linear springs? I had always thought they were progressive. I checked the data on here and it does not say, so i figured if anyone would know, it would be you. Thanks!

Also Eibach sportline for coupe.
Good list. Thank you so much!

To get Eibach specs I have to call them, not sure when I'll have time to do that.

Also, they aren't going to have a very significant rate spread either. Rear springs are definately linear.
I E-Mailed Tein, and also asked them at the recent HIN in Orlando, and both times they replied with linear. I looked at a pair of their Basics and the spring looked like it was the same diameter all the way down.
Could you explain this a little further? Not trying to be argumentative... I'm just trying to learn.
Thanks.

hmmm ok...does anyone know if Tien CS is more of a comfortable ride compared to the HKS LS? Now dont be mistaken with the LS+ and the LS, Im only refering the LS! Since I'm a daily drivers, would anyone recommend a spring and shock set up instead! Id like to lower my car perhaps .75in and no more than 1in! I know ken on this forum had a pretty cool set up with Dshocks, eibach and something else but im looking for osmething that will lower my ride, make it feel close to stock and that doesn't make my handling worse, some improvement would be good! I don't autocross or track my car so Ive thought springs and shocks might be a more suutable alternative but I need some advice! This will be my first modification on my car! I know ill prob need some camber kits but ill ask about that later (unless you have a answer for me). I'll lower with the stock 19s for now but eventually ill upgrade to some SF winnings or LE28s but some help would be great from those of you who know more or are experiences with differnt setups! thanks.
