Default Tein s-tech springs

Is this brand any good ? & which is better the S-tech or H-tech ?? And anyone god pics of it on their IS250 with OEM wheels ? I bought Eibach springs for my last 3 cars so I want to get something different and equally good, my only reason I didn't buy Teins in 2010 was that I was told they were experiencing some problems at the time

I've had S-Techs on my IS350 for the last 6 years without any problems.

STechs lower more than HTechs but HTechs ride better. I have ridden in a few cars with STechs before and I personally think the ride sucks with them compared to other springs that are available. The main reason people get them is because they have one of the lowest drops on the market. I like H&R personally. I had them on my last car and loved the ride quality.

Welcome to CL. I think it depends on how low you want to go. I'd still get H&R's cause they go lower. Here's a link to read even though its old.

I understand this to be an older post however, oblivionis, wanted to confirm which TEIN S.Tech Spring set did you have installed (SKL90-C3B00 OR SKL90-S3B00). Also, UKis250, have since installed the TEIN springs as well?
as well?ch Spring,
