Same with me, the day we installed them my boyfriend and I took it out and did some hard cornering and hard snake turns in the street. Handling is awesome, we both like them better than my Ground Controls. I felt and feel a lot safer with the S-Techs on.

Oh and I changed my shocks to KYB's also. Which I would recommend doing if you have over 100K on your car.

I think that whoever buys these Tein S-Techs will be pleased with them.

I didn't, made sure everything was aligned correctly (ex.top mounts), made sure rubber seats and springs were facing out correctly.

Is this coming from the rear? It could be your swaybar links. Most cases it's not on correctly. I would of replaced those if I were you.

Tein S-Tech's only cost me $110+$30 shipping on ebay.

Do a search on this guy in ebay, there's a few of us on here that bought through him. Highly recommended.

final price: 140 (i think) to my front door. install = easy so DIY.

the lowering looks perfect on 18"s. probably like a 1.5 drop.
