Tein Coilover Spring Availability?

All,

Is the only place to get these for my FC is through Tein or are there others who offer more selection of spring stiffness? If you need the actual P/N I have on my car, I can get that but these are the Super Sport model of their coilover. I think there are like only 3 models available anyway.

Can you suggest whom to go to?

Thank you,
Ben

Springs only. I have the coilovers with their original springs and want to go stiffer.

If you can use generic racing springs, you can get these:

Eibach and Swift both make custom springs (as well as Tein themselves). You'll need to make sure to have your dampers revalved if you increase the spring rate too much over what the dampers were designed to work with...

Good point and was thinking of that. I guess a call into Tein will be helpful for this information.
