Tein Super Street on a Legacy??

[Mark Cahill]

Looking at these on Gumtree, http://www.gumtree.ie/dublin/16/36229516.html , just wondering if anyone has these fitted to a 99-03 Legacy?

How much of a drop is there over standard? Will they fit straight onto the standard shock? What is the drive like after fitting?

I know there are plenty of Tein fakes on the market, is there anyway of telling the real from the fakes??

Cheers
Mark

25 to 30mm drop I would guess.

i've a set of full tein coilovers in mine now they make the car look gr8 as its a hell of alot lower but u really lose the comfort factor and ramps become back brakers

not practical for secondary road use IMO...
way too uncomfortable for anything other than motorway driving!!!

he has them advertised as tein super street which are coilovers yet he has the Tein S tech springs pictured? Tein Stech on mine dropped it 40mm all round. Beware the counterfeit springs = death trap!
