HAHA maybe u should change ur SIGNATURE.. put a big fat FAKE beside the TEIN s tech for ur matrix's lineup!
just messing with ya, haha. Seriously though i'm wondering if all the people hating on them got real or fake ones. There are only a few people who are happy with them.
fack me!!!!!!! no wonder my ride feels like a dump truck!! DAMN IT! I HATE YOU EBAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....cigarette smoked...now what type of springs should I get for my car. It's a regular SRT, non ACR, but I did add the Tokico Ilumina schocks... Still feels like a dump truck considering the springs are freaking fake...

You could always try to get real Tein S-techs... Seriously though a lot of people have had success with the Mopar springs. Since you've got adj. illuminas you could probably get away with just about any spring you wanted. I'm a fan of the mopars and hotchkis. The new tokicos can't be that bad either. But if you want more of a drop choose some other springs.

Are you still keeping them on your car - aren't you a bit worried? Just asking.
Nope, not worried at all. Checked everything so many times, even my suspension guru buddy checked em, nothing bad goin on. I mean I know theres the possibility of iono the thing 'breaking' but you wont die on the road if a spring acts up. The only time I'll take em off is if I get some coilovers, which will not be soon cause all my money right now is going into my srt4 and boost for the matrix.
damn it , i purchased some stechs off ebay about a week ago, i hope i can send back if fake. anybody can tell me the seller , i will appreciate it. thanks
I have a SRT special going on in my vendor section. Check it out - send me an email / call me / or private message me if interested. These are genuine direct from Tein
so i got the real ones in.. and lord these are the worst to be using with our stock shocks. I can't remember a time when i didnt look forward to driving my car. I'll be going back to stock springs

There is no question, get H&R sports......you will NEVER want another spring, EVER.
