Tein H Tech vs. Maxspeeds..Thoughts???

I am debating whether to put the Maxspeeds on or go for the Tein H's. Anyone know the drop difference?

maxspeed front 1.7 and real 1.4
teins fron 2.0 rear 1.8

either one u use your ride is gonna be stiffer and not as smooth on bumps... payin the price of better handeling for little bit of comfort loss other than that in my opinion they are both great springs

i'm going with H-techs considering my rear is sitting lower with the sub enclosure already- so it may tun out an nice even drop- plus a softer spring to allow
more wheel travel

I hear what youre saying but there are reports of Maxspeeds only dropping 1 inch. Have you seen the Maxspeed drop in person??

Front

Back


These pics were taken a day after installation. They've probably settled a little bit lower since then.

yea i have maxspeeds on my ride....i think it dropped more than a inch i can barely fit 2 fingers between the tire and fender and i have stock 16"

the only thing with maxspeeds are that they take a little longer than other springs to settle...
