teins...h-tech???

I've heard a lot about Tein S-tech springs but have never heard of H-tech. Southwestautoworks.com sells H-Tech and I was wondering what is the difference between Tein S-Tech and H-Tech springs.

H-tech's are softer springs (for a more comfortable ride) Front drop 1.6" / Rear Drop 1.0"- This will be my choice of lowering springs when I purchase my
wheels

I rather get some H&R since they have the same spec and H&R are make in germ.and almost the same price. I will have to see that people refer.

h&r are a no -no for me cause my sub box lowers the rear of my car already-
most people w/ these springs (1.3" rear drop / 1.4" front drop) their rear looks
more sagged in the rear than the front

so I think w/ H-techs there will be a nicer balance

You're correct, Manny. I thought we just had some discussion about H-tech's? Oh well, the search is down.

So far, the people that have purchased the H-tech's have nothing but praise for them. It is new to us, so we haven't had a chance to install them on a customer's vehicle, but so far, our outside-AZ customers are loving them.

so H techs have a softer ride than the s techs, and less of a drop?
