I've been searching all over the web and forums reading about the release or anticipated release actually of the Tein S.Tech springs for the 08+ A.C. It seems that up until a few months ago there was a lot of talk about it. If i remember correctly, i even saw a pic of it installed on a 2010 somewhere on here. But everything i've read just seems contradictory and now its completely ghost. Can anyone offer any insight on whats going on? I was loving the opportunity to have a choice other than eibach or coilovers.

Let us know what they say - I'm curious to why these never came out.

Well I finally spoke with a rep and his exact words were, "Well it looks like those springs are currently being manufactured, and should be out in about 3 - 4 months." :squint: Pretty much what they've said to everyone since last summer.. Sounds like the same BS all over again. oh well.

Weird. I wonder why they're balking on this. I had the prototype set of these springs last May... it's been almost a year.

They don't see a big market for the Altima. Plus they receive shipments every 3-4 months. Eventually they will come out just like how the SS coilovers came out 2 years later from its first inquiry.

Im gonna try and hold out for the 4 months. But if I don't see anything, I gotta go with the Eibachs, even tho they're still too high for my tastes. If only I could afford Coils..
