Default Tein S vs Eibach springs

I am going for one of the two, as I just want a small drop (1"-1.5" max)

The only reason I ask, is coz the Tein S are considerably cheaper - I hate to make the price = quality argument, but it cannot be ignored. Are they as good when it comes to quality, coz it's always good to save a few bucks (especially since I am going to be getting some 17" Volk LE37t rims at the same time!)

(Other options I could go with are H&R, Tanabe and RSR - but not inclined)

Any experience with Tein S springs people?

Any and all feedback is welcome.

Cheers.

I used to run Tein's and they were pretty good. I thought it was a very good match with stock shocks.

Thanks to the three!

I am more comfortable with Teins now - still a decision to make I guess!

Tein S drop it to about an inch, right?

I had this set up before..I thought it was a little on the softer side in terms of performance. The OEM springs and stock shocks were better.....I would save up and get a coilover.
