Could you run Tien S. Tech Springs on stock shocks and struts and still have a smooth ride?

 

No. .......

.....

 

no they will blow out in a few minths depending n age of stocker..

PS I HAVE A SET OF TEINS FOR SALE

 

**** techs will never have a smooth ride

 

can you run any lowering springs on stock shocks and struts without blowing them?

 

I think the most they'll handle is around 1.0" drop.

 

of course you could put them on the stock struts.....and cruise around witht hem....but the strut as everyone said will blow, and it will neverbe as good of a ride.

 

nope the ride won't be very smooth at all... i rode around with stock struts on S-techs for about 3 months, suspension felt terrible

 

I'm running s-techs and stock struts right now due to the previous owner of my car. The ride is very stiff and it doesn't feel like there is any suspention underneath you. I'm short on cash right now but as soon as I can collect enough I will be throwing some better struts on for sure! You may as well spend the money on struts now because if you try to run that setup you will be buying struts soon enough

 

You will never feel as much comfort as stock.

 

what you guys think about the eibachs? do they make a sport line version to them..or just the Pro?

 

Pro only for Maxima I believe.

How do the S-Techs feel like with Illuminas on?

 

Just the fact that you ask about ride eliminates the S-Techs. You will never get a decent ride with them, they are too low and give up too much travel. Oddly I liked them on the auto-x course with race tires, even though they gain + camber on the front under compression. (once again too low.)

 

a pair of brand new stockers will last you about a year or 2 depending on how you drive ......

napa gives a life time warrenty if you dnt mind changing them ever year or 2?

 

hmm, making me think twice about these..

 

Luke, if you want to go that low, get coilovers. I never listened to people that said that before, but now i realize that they were right the whole time.
