I spent 160 dollars on Tein S tech springs. I kept my stock shocks. Install took about 2 hours in my driveway.

My handling feels much tighter, stiffer than stock yet still plenty comfortable for daily driving. the drop is pretty low compared to other springs on the market, but i have not scraped or rubbed on anything, even with a wider wheel setupand full passengers in the car. Ive hit a few surprise bumps and potholes so far, even went airborne once, and haven't rubbed.

I went this route because a good spring and shock is better than a cheap coil, and this is not my track car so i dont need a 2000+ dollar set of track coilovers. If/when my stock shocks blow, ill replace them with Koni Yellows. But they seem to be holding up fine so far. I am extremely happy with my purchase, especially at the amount of money i spent.
