Tein lowering springs
 
Just curious, but does anyone have these
Tein Springs . If so, feedback on the ride and quality would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

we just put a set on in the shop for a Protege, they dropped it about 2 in., the ride quality did suffer some but not to bad, it handles much better than stock..as for tein products we have never had a complaint... i can get them for $162.00 plus shipping chris@SPD Racing--760-787-5759

Would those fit a four door or are they only for the Protege 5? I might be interested.

I have them and they same great so far. Still waiting for Ilumina struts from Tokico, but the stock struts are holding up ok as far as bounce is concerned. 32,000 miles on stock struts/springs and put the Tein's on about 3,000 miles ago...

I would rate the stiffness between the Eibach's and H&R's. I haven't ridden in any other lowered Pro, but have had some experience with these springs on other cars. My friend put H&R's on an A3 Jetta and it is hella stiff but since H&R doesn't release the spring rates to the public I can't compare them to the Protege's. Only that they drop the car about the same...
