byhi Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 wich model are those? and what r the spring rates and how do u like them? while driving and while driving hard. sorry for all the ?s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGGU Posted April 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 The Model is The Tein Flex. Spring Rates:F:396lbs-in(7kg/mm)R:336lbs-in(6kg/mm) Driving the car is bumpy like you would expect with hard spring rates but driving hard is like a dream. i cant feel very much body roll if there is any. when taking turns with my old suspension going about 35 or so i would hear squeling of the tires but now at 35 or so i still dont hear anything. i have not had the chance to drive these very hard but i am taking my time breaking them in. i got the alighnment today and the spec's matched up to what Tein said they would be around. In my opinion Tein really did their research on this product before the brought them out to market. if your looking at getting a set i really would. they are worth every penny and you will overall love them.

GonneVille Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 2 Zum, you do any thing to your sway-bars? If you're still using the stock sway bars with those new coil-overs, you might be a little disappointed when that body-roll sticks around. That's a nice set-up though, get some stiffer sway-bars on it, and see just how much those shocks can REALLY do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGGU Posted April 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 yea im still running stock sways Teins + prom + next drift event+ BMC Autocross = all my funds for now. once i get more money i will be going for a set of either jackson racing swaybars or suspension technique. just really not sure what to get. i took a little practice run down shull road to see what kinda turning i could get outta my car since this was the nicest day i was off to test. i tell you im quite impressed with them now. btw i saw a very nice mustang comming the opposite way. it was a gun metal color looked to be deep dish rims. not sure but was this anyone on here?
