Tein Price Increases May 1.

[WeSellCarParts]

I just want to give you all a heads up that Tein will be increasing pricing drastically on May 1. Please make sure you order Tein before then. If you do not, springs are going to cost nearly $35 more and coilovers range from increases of $125 - $500.

Very large increase; we will be carrying other products more extensively to ensure you get top value for your suspension needs.

Skunk2 will be a suitable replacement for both coilover and spring applications. We are also going to be announcing a new set up very reasonably priced for coilovers within the next week. For springs, we are working on ensuring a good network and availability of Progress Suspension. We also have begun to stock Eibach more heavily too. Believe it or not, Eibach springs will cost less than Tein after this increase!

We hope this price increase does not start a trend with manufacturers

Thanks everyone!

Dan
