[9450erick]

A lot of people on this thread really like the AMRs. Even the ones that bashed on Tein( which i was going to buy just for thier name) im probably goin to buy the AMRs for sure. i didnt even know about AMRs until this. But you guys are the experts and i trust your decision.

I bought my Tein SS used almost a year and a half ago and they perform and feel the same way since I've put them on. I've logged in about 25k+ miles on them already and I'm pretty sure the previous owner logged in about 50k before me. So I'm happy with my Teins.. the only gripe I have is that the front needs to be designed to go about another 1/4-1/2" lower and it would be superrrrrb. I love the mix of comfort and performance with the SS.

i bought my tein ss brand new and i enjoyed them. im 1 finer gap with 16's and this might be a nice enough ride height for some, but not for me haha. if i was gonna buy a coilover set up again with 1g, it would be amr.

People have different needs and different tastes, lets just base the product on the needs of the customer. Tein is by no means OEM feel, it is a lot stiffer than stock. I know what stiff suspension is, but this is for the everyday driver who wants more performance out of their car without sacrificing reliability and comfort.

Teins are a great product and have never let me down, they are worth the money for someone who is just trying to lower their car a few inches and have an entry level performance suspension system.

Combine these with a rear sway and a front strut and you have a very decent suspension set up.

I don't think its right to say they are too much money or this and that. They are a quality suspension upgrade from stock and they are an even better construction than our OEM shocks. If you want to be super stiff, bounce around the road and around corners, then yeah, Teins are pretty much a waste of money. It just depends on what you like.

the op has made up his mind, i don't see a reason this thread should still be taking everyone's opinions, especially since most are just restating what they've already said

hahaha I know exactly what you mean andy my dare has the full touch screen keypad when you turn it sideways and my thumbs are so ****ing fat that I can't even use it.

as for the coils I think you should go with amr, they're in your price range and you can't beat the fact that they've never had a damper blow and no one can seem to find any type of customer service complaint about AMR.
