Maybe it is my eyes but I can't make out the after pic measurements; it kind of looks like they were both ~26.5" and dropped to 25.5"???? How long ago were these done? Just wondering if they have settled, becuase I am thinking of picking up H-Techs myself but worried about local speed bumps. How you like the ride so far?

The H- Techs are only a 0.9 drop so they are not that bad for going over speed bumps as long as goyou do what you are suposed to, slow down. I have heard they are kind of squishy for lowering spring, close to stock, so if you ae more comfort biased then they are a great spring for you.
Now for the reason i clicked :lol:
your car looks pretty sweet man, I looked in to these springs but wentt with progress cause i liked the raked drop better, but i really like the way it looks on your car.

Thanks for the compliments
The ride is only a bit stifffer than stock. Not at all harsh... You don't bounce around or get thrown. To me.. it's perfect...
Those pix were taken same day as the install, so they have "settled" a it more, i'll try to get an updated pix up. Tein states that the drop is .9 so... about an inch or so would be about right...

Real nice drop, not too much not too little. Did you install them yourself or did you have them istalled elsewhere?

anyone have bottoming out issues with the Tein H's? i know that they are close to stock in rate and yet lower so i was wondering if this is an issue?

I wonder if the H Techs that lower more than the spec numbers are the counterfeit H Techs that are out there.

No bottom out issues, yet..
Had a shop install them, I think they charged $150 to install them, I picked up my rims and tires at the same time so it was a "package deal"..
