    Tein basic springs

    I've had my basics for maybe about a year or so. Not happy with them. (read my review) Any one who has basics or SS's and likes them either does'nt push their car hard or is in denial because they have Teins and dont wanna admit they're too soft. But fear not my cb7'ers I found a solution. I recently purchased and installed new Tein springs on my basics. Front springs are from 92-96 prelude and has a spring rate of 450lbs. Rear springs are from an UPGRADED SS Accord 90-93 and are 380lbs. This gave my car the superhandling I desired. The Tein rep says that the basics can handle the increased sping rate with out the immidiate need for revalving. Though he does admit that the front will likely give out before the rear. Cost was 50 each spring from Inlinefour.com This is a custom order that has to be called in. (For the record Basic and SS spring rates are 360lbs in front 280lbs in the rear)

      Do you have the coilover setup? or just those springs? I have the tokico illumina coilovers, and was wondering what the spring rates were.

              maybe the accord tein spring rate is accounted with the f22 in mind not the h22. unless there is little diff

                there is not much difference, but the F22A is PROBABLY heavier than an H series.... so it shouldn't hurt if you got an H-series, it should actually be better.

                  If u guys want to get coilover springs for cheaper, go to ebay and look under "Hypercoil", nascar people use these springs and they're equivalent or better than eibach. u can easily get a pair for $40.
