What shocks recommended for Tein S-Tech -1.2/-1.02 Lowering springs?
 
Hi all,

I have a set of Tein S-Tech -1.2/-1.02 Lowering springs installed. Any suggestions for quality replacement shocks, maybe that work better with a lowered car?

Koni Yellow's are a great shock. Sent you a message.

Bilstein B8's are what I suggest, they're going to be well worth the increased cost (only another 300 bucks or so) in terms of the upgrade in quality. They can also be rebuilt to match your springs to really tone down any harshness.

I'm running the S-Techs and I plan on going the B8 route once my stock ones go out. I think it'll be a great combo.

I currently have just over 25000 miles on the car. I installed the springs a month after I got the car. So I have over 20000 miles on the Tein spring and stock shock combo. No issues. I don't race or autoX the car. Just aggressive street driving.
