i think they're rated at about 1.5" all around... I picked up some brand new ones off a guy on H-T for $80 bucks, can't wait to install. Great for daily driving i've heard, but yeah. Good to hear that they ride well. Are you on stock shocks?

so the springs are a 1.5" drop on an eg?.......did you use stock shocks or new ones.....is there a need to buy aftermarket shocks if your only lookin for a 1.5" drop?....and im not lookin for like auto-x suspension.....just 1.5" lower and a lil stiffer in corners
btw....got any pics?

The info sheet with the s techs for an eg say 1.8 rear and 1.5 front or something along those lines. I have them on my EG with stock shocks. Rides nice but i wish it was lower. Then again i do only have the stock 13 vx wheels on it
Ride quality is A+ for a DD IMO

I got a set since two years on my '99 LX, I like it a lot, it's around 20% stiffer than oem, and lwer about 1.5in. I recommend it to every one who want nice street springs, but little bit too soft to go on track.

yeah...my cuz got them for his accord...they were almost as soft as stock - i think the drop is ~1.8" front and back after it settles... but who knows.

IF you get the fake ones your gonna sue the guy for $120? HAHAH it would cost you more than that to go to court and pay court costs ESPECIALLY if he is out of state.....AND hire a lawyer OVER $120? Arent you the smart one

I really love my S techs...good stance, just wish the front settled lower than the rear. Overall performance i would rate them an 8 outta 10, perfect for daily driving, doesnt scrape over speed bumps and still riding on 215k mi. shocks that still feel almost brand new! Gonna go with some koni yellows soon to adj. ride height and dampening. No complaints at all...slightly stiffer than stock and nice height!

I had stechs on my Ej1 for 2-3 years and really liked them. They seem kinda soft compared to my Eibach sportlines but were forgiving on shady roads. I sold them to NIKKON on here and he seems to be enjoying them as well. If you want to drop the front or back just a little bit more , the koni yellows will deffinetely do it, S-18 on here did the same thing to drop his front about 1/4"--1/2"....

They have and adjustable perch. 2 settings. Ones for standard size and the other is like a inch lower. Only on some models, not all.
