I've had the S-Tech's on for over 29,000 miles with no apparent problems...yet. The car does sit low, but that's not the arguement. I think I may finally be starting to show some signs of wear to the struts, but I'm still not completely clear on what those signs are. All in all, I've been very fortunate and see no outward problems as of yet.

 

I put s-techs on at 1000 miles and I agree they are too bouncy, looks good but too bouncy... out of curiosity what are some of the signs of trouble? On all my other cars before I used eibach springs and never had any trouble...

 

Tien H
maybe 2-3k on them.
Blown struts. rears where alrght though
repair cost were 899 tien CO to replace.

 

ive had teins for about 3k miles now, and i havent had a problem yet... they r just really stiff n bumpy...

 

i have the teins on and my front struts are blown and leaking..i will be getting the tenabes and also looking forward to a softer ride for once..

 

This thread should be a sticky, LOL.

Ya why was everyone so up in arms about tein to begin with if their shocks and springs are no good??

 

Type of Spring TIEN H-TECH “Luxury Master”

Struts blew, two of them right side (First the front passenger then the rear obviously holding up the front)
TIEN=AIDS for your Evo.

 

Too low, too soft = struts riding on bump stops and ramming the strut until the point it leaks fluid.
