I am sure that there has been a thread regarding this but I cant find it.. I am looking to purchase coils in the next few days.. Any input on which one of these would be best would be greatly appreciated. I am going to be running 10.5 with 285/30/20 in the rear.. Not 100% sure on the offset right now.. I will try and get it..
Thanks

Nobody??? Any input would be helpful.. Thanks!
Re: Eibach vs Tien (biffed)
well what kind of ride are you looking for? way lowered or just slightly lowered that gets rid of wheel gap? Have you done a search? This topic has been discussed dozens of times and there is a ton of photos of each along with results, opinions, etc on this forum.

Re: Eibach vs Tien (biffed)
from what it sounds like, you need to go with the Tein H-techs. since you're runninng a big wheel, i would go with just a very mild drop. the H-techs drop the car 1.2 in the front and 0.5 in the rear.

The website says 1.8/1.1.. Im so torn.. I want it to have it low, but I dont want to rub.. I may get the eibachs.. and if its to low sell them and get the teins.. we will see
Re: Eibach vs Tien (biffed)
well tein makes h-tech and s-tech springs. H-tech is less of a drop then the s-tech. If you were going to go as low as the s-tech i would just go with the Eibachs instead. For me, im going with the H-tech because i just want a mild drop to get rid of a little wheel gap but still fall within specs and be able to have my car properly align unlike the the Eibach drop. Eibachs look nice but its too much of a drop for my liking, not to mention more stress on your stock struts etc and it wont test within specs.
