tein

tein makes awesome springs and coilovers for japanese cars, id assume theyre just as good for the mini. one of my friends told me though that sometimes teins sag afer time. I dunno, he didnt give me specifics. Also I was wondering if anyone that has them has encountered problems with camber?
thanks
albert

tein is one of the few japanese company who makes shocks & springs, i love the price and the quality of japanese parts..... i got mine last week and will install the springs sometime next week, they lowered the car around 1.5 for the front & 1.2 for the rear.... teim is a very well known brand if you drive a japanese car...........
