the tiens "handle well" and "seem firm" because they drop so low the car is riding on bump-stops 90% of the time

it doesnt matter what you use your car for... unless its a lawn ornament, teins are all around garbage springs. theres about 1000+ threads that will confirm this.

you could put slinkys on your struts and get the same effect as an s-tech spring.

I want a smooth ride.....a bouncy, stiff, zero travel car is not fast. I want a smooth ride so that my tires stay in contact with the ground and I can hit mid-corner bumps without the chassis freaking out. Firm, but smooth, is a good thing.

^ "Firm, but smooth."

A great mantra to live by.
