Default Need help between Tein s and H&R Springs!!

I am new here. Just starting to do some mods on my car. Trying to figure out which on is better for daily drive and also can go through some aggresive roads. I do not want to scratch my bottom and front bumper. Just heard EIBACH will get some noise which is depends on the installation and cars. So I am thinking to get Tein s tech or H&R lower springs. Can any one tell me which on can give better looking and good for daily drive? According to my way to get them. The price is pretty much the same. So I want to know compare those brands, which one has better quanlity too. Thank you so much!!

I'd go with H&R. Teins I hear are a bit soft and don't go as low.

i had the eibach for the 250 (will fit the 350) and didnt have any problems with them. the drops is 1.4f and 1.0r. i didnt get any noise like how you mentioned, but i also had the FSport shocks too.
they were comfortable to me.

Stechs drop lower and is softer. H&R are most popular and are stiffer.

I love the H&Rs on my daily driver. Not too low and ride quality is great! No experience with the Teins though but you can't go wrong with H&R!

Yeah I go with H&R, had them on my last ride with koni shocks. Ride is a little stiff but no problem with them at all.
