tein basic coilover

hey, i just got my tein basic coilovers installed and there great. it handles so nice, i had tein lowering springs and it doesn't come close to camparison. being able to adjust the ride height is great. looks real good.
i got them at morepowerracing for 795 shipped!!! got them in 3 days after ordering and live in the total opposite side of the country. great service and great price.
i don't understand why rrm sells em for 870 and is a leading supplier of lancer performance parts

No. Sadly. I wanted that too, but no one makes them at all. That's why I had to spend the big money on coilovers. But they're worth every penny.

i do not know how to quote sorry lol... well right now i have the stock oz rims back on... so i'm sure with 17" rims the ride will be more harsh.. but i love it. it really is worth everysingle penny. it feels great and handles SOOOOOO nice. lol. you do feel alot of the road. i wouldn't go for lowering springs.. not good for ur shox. just get the tein basic coilovers.. if u have the extra money go SS! grreat buy

shipping is around 50-60$ for shipping... and if you pick up you have to pay tax... dont forget that.

you can get the shocks from Tein themselves. but the lowering springs are not compatable with the coilovers.
