I've ridden on them and several guys I know run them. They love them. Personally, I am eyeing FLT-A2s. HEs are overdone;)

where can you find HEs for 1200? I've seen HAs for that price but not HEs

I went to the Tein website and saw that the wheel offset must be less that +38mm. I've searched and found that stock wheels have a 40mm offset, which means that i would have to purchase new wheels if i were to buy the HE's. Now i have ne intention of speanding $500-$1000 for a 5 lug conversion, but i am having a very difficult time finding nice 114.3 lug pattern wheels with an offset less than +38. So far the only wheels i have found that will work are the 5Zigen FN0 IR-C. Does anyone have this setup with the 4 lug setup?

Is this for an S13 or an S14? The whole think about needing aftermarket wheels I mean.

Xonn, I was talking about the S13. Go to the tein website ( http://www.tein.com/hedamp.html )and they give all the info. They don't say anything about the offset for the S14.

spcaers are bad, and a 15mm spacer is a LOT.

call tein, Im pretty sure the stock wheels fit, and the +38 thing was for aftermarkets, I cant think of any suspension company that would knowingly make aproduct that wouldnt clear other OE equipment.-chet

The key is "Ft Wheel offset less than +38mm (6.5inch wide)". I believe your 4 lug S14 wheels are 15x6. Call Tein if you want confirmation, but I was told by them that the HE's wouldn't be a problem with my S13 stock 4 lug wheels.

Unfortunately, my car decided that it needed parts other than coilovers, so I never got HE's.

The guys at Tein are usually very helpful from what I've heard (they helped me out)...I'd give 'em a call. Tel # 562-861-9161.
