i remember reading a long time ago that there were fake tein s.tech springs on ebay. i did a search but couldn't find anything on the subject. has anyone heard anything about the immitation s.tech springs??

thanks in advance

 

Here you go buddy: http://www.tein.com/counterfeit/

 

thanks, where's the best place to buy then ..?

 

ebay ones seem fine...wats fake about um?

 

They may not be the proper spring rates, or have been spring tested at all. You could end up with 400 front right, 380 front left, 200 rear left and 250 rear right. Who knows what you'll get if they aren't legit.

 

and here we have their market base...

 

I plan on going with the mono flex. I plan to buy from my local shop though.

 

full on coilovers are NOT the parts being counterfeited
yet.
its the easy to sell and easy to move fast basic spring sets that are fake all over ebay, lame.
