ive had them with stock shocks for 5 months. they are a subtle drop which means less stress on your shocks. cant really compare them to stock springs because i installed them the day after i got the car but they're not stiff

They're cool, decent drop, ride close to stock since stock doesn't ride that well anyway. I've had them for about 75k miles on stock shocks and they're starting to go, but i've got 90k on the car, so it's about time anyway.

I use them in the twisties and they're fine even with stock shocks. Tires do much more than anything else IMO.

hearing from others in this thread sounds like the teins arent bad for the fit, but coming from the subaru world, teins where frown upon pretty greatly. especially the s-techs.

That's because all WRX drivers think they're Senna and are all becusracecar and half of them don't even need all that suspension they run

It's a spring. The only difference is the used ones will be settled already

$190 new is good though, if you insist on new just order those.

i have them on mine and love them. the feel the ride is pretty good for being lowered and i purchased mine new on amazon for 175.00 just check the correct part number on tein's site and match to amazon because you do not want to have a wrong part. i have the teins and have 16x8 with a +25 offset wheel and no rubbing. hope this helps you.
