Default Tein CS problems?

I just bought this. WIll pick up thursday. I was told by another LS owner, that they don't lower much?

WTF

Can someone help before I spend 1200

So should I get Megans (which I really didn't want) or Tanabes? (how much do those lower?)

Appreciate the help! Have to make purchase decision tomorrow.

Megans are good they are just the underdog when it comes to suspension....look at the group buy from M1 Autosport in the vendor sales u might get them cheaper!
