hahaha well if you know what i am lowered on you will know la...
but yeah whats the height difference with Tein H-tech and Tein S-tech?
which one is lower and which one has better ride??... i don't want my ride to be to bouncy because side skirts will scrap all the time...

well, from Tein official website, S and H both got same spring rate, but S-Tech can drop car 45mm front and 50mm back...H-Tech only drop 35mm front, 30mm back.

told u wasnt me who did it... well back when my cousin was modifying there were no lowering springs for the Jazz so he cut them... now you know why i need new springs so i am going to go for Tein S because it will sit nearly the same height as my current setup

slightly back on topic now. since i've got 16" rims now, is it expected that my ride quality be slightly stiffer? i'm running full dead stock car suspension wise, and after i got the rims i seem to notice the bumps much more? is this normal? as the oem suspension is very soft
Dreams
10-04-2008, 09:16 PM
Yes, because the tyre profile is thinner compare to stock, hence why you get stiffer ride.

I am going for Tein H-Tech now guys... i want my car to be sitting on legal height for now... don't want to get another defect plus my side skirts makes my car lower... going to invest on coils in the future :p
