Default Anybody running Tein street advance....

My performance shop is trying to sell me on the new Tein street advance coilovers for my gs400 I'm liking the bc racing because I see alot of write ups on the bcs but none on the new street advance... Can anyone chime in on what's better bang for the buck. I'm only gonna be doing daily street driving no racing or tracking. Thanks

Not sure about either, but I know ppl like the BC Racing for the drop, although for long term durability and reliability you are better off with the TEIN's. I know some with the BC's who have issues later with them leaking and going out.

I don't know if you've made a purchase yet, but if you haven't - stay away from tein.
They are garbage and the company doesn't stand behind the product. I have a claim against them with the BBB right now because they didn't feel it was important to provide good customer service on a set of street flexs that have rendered my car useless. Look at my signature.
