To Tein or Not to Tein that is the ?????

I want to get some lowering springs for my car and am debating between H&R and Tein . I know that Tein currently does not offer any springs specifically for our cars but there are a few 07+ Gs rolling on Tein Springs anyways. My concern is that since its technically not for our car wouldn't there be any issues as far as "messing up the suspension" on the car or something along those lines ? To those that have Tein Springs which ones are u running? How much of a drop did u get? What is the ride quality like? Would u recommend a fellow G driver getting them? Or should I just wait, n wait, n wait for Tein to finally come out with something for our cars ??? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated

From my previous experiences with teins, (i had 4 lowered cars thus far) is that they tend to sag over time, much more than eibach or h&r.

the h&r springs for the G drops the front much lower than teins or eibachs. if thats what you like, go with h&r's, otherwise, skip teins and go with eibach.

i can't answer your question on if there'd be any issues with using springs not specifically made for our model, but the suspension setup is pretty much the same on all models, the shocks and towers at least for the sedan, (base, Gs, Gx, Gxs, Gjourn). I'd like to know this as well, if thered be any issues.
