I just got my Skunk 2 pro-s on [pics inside]

da_lsvtak · 04-07-2008, 06:12 PM

I was very torn between buying tein s-techs or going full out and buying coilovers.

at $700 shipped and a better part of the day, these things are so worth it!

anyways enough talk here are pics from another forum i post on.

i rate these about 8.5/10 on overall buy/quality/comfort for $700 you really cant beat the price and value of these coilovers.

ride quality is good, no complaints. if it was higher it would ride close to stock i would imagine.

i rate them 8.5 because, because to be honest there are just better coilovers, like better features such as 12 way adjustable valving, and you have very high quality suspension competion like the tein flex or the skunk 2 pro-C

as far as comparing them to tein basics. i think the pro-s takes the cake as far as best bang for buck. and ive owned the tein basics before.

ortivt6 · 04-07-2008, 06:58 PM

I had Tein basic before... A bit bouncy for me... then I wanted to get the Tein Flex but damn over 2k with the edfc....

You can get them off of ebay hella cheap. It's like $669 OBO, maybe you could squeeze them out for $620ish
