I have H&R with stock shocks.
It looks pretty awesome but theres a bit of vibration sometimes when stopped in "D"
if you push it to neutral it goes away. Its kinda annoying when you have a bottle of water in the door compartment and it starts rattling like crazy from the vibration. Kinda like an amplifier for the vibration haha!
Otherwise, theres no problems for me.
Just push it to neutral if anything

I just purchased a set directly from Tein for around $160 (no tax)! Am looking forward to install. Will give a recount of look, feel, quality, etc. when I finally get around to installing them. Also, the steering damper mod which many ppl on here seem to enjoy.

Cheers!

i have heard that the vibration only happens on the AWD cars when lowering due to the increased angle of the axles and that there is a place that will modify the length of them to get rid of the vibration. as far as brands go, i have had Tein S-Techs on my IS300 and also have them on my IS350 and absolutely love the ride and the stance. no issues here.
