tein s tech springs and stock struts

[turbocelicagts]

hello i just bought s tech springs and was told that they can be used with stock struts i was thinking about doing this for now ,but im wondering if anybody has this and how is the ride quality?
thank you

its definitely not as comfortable as stock springs, but it wasn't bad when i first installed mine stechs on my stocks struts...but, now, a year and a few months later, its starting to get a bit more bouncy. this is mostly due to the fact that the roads i take to school are really bad...so, your ride quality should be tolerable for about 1-2 years, depending on your road conditions and the way you drive you car...

yea i am looking at doing the same thing and i was just wondering if they were worth the money or if i should just wait and save up the 1100 dollars for the entire dampering kit. so give me some suggestions

i have s-techs with stock setup, and i think it is really stiff, i can feel every bump. i'm also on 215/45/17, but it is pretty stiff.

The tires definitely add a lot to the stiffness. With my 15s, the springs only feel a little stiffer than stock, but when I add the 17s, I can feel much more when it comes to bumps and cracks in the road.

i also have the tein stech with stock shocks and also 17 and it feels stiff and every hole you pass in the road you are going to feel it.
