My 5 RS has brand new TEINs. I've never owned them before so interested to see how they are once I get the car on the road.

Depends entirely on the model. Tein do anything from street friendly dampers all the way up to competition gravel spec coilovers. Mine are super streets which are essentially a mix of road/track use. Just about bearable on soft but don't go hitting any pot holes! AD08R's do not help with their super stiff sidewall either!

I’ll find out. They’re brand spanking new so don’t really want to be changing them, but will if they’re unbearable!

I guess I am overeacting a bit but I am used to the magic carpet ride of a Saab 9-5 Aero most of the time so when I get into something a little more raw it feels ten times worse.

LOL, well I've been told it's the more expensive set.

I had the cheap ones on one of my cars and I was impressed with them. They seemed very well made, and rode really well. Totally transformed the car.

The low end Teins are the cheapest coilovers I would consider buying.

How long did you have them for? Are you qualified to give feedback on said item? I don't think so.

Went out for a drive tonight as well and my car is pitted, not that bad though.

Can't see them in this pic

ShiWarrior · 2 Jun 2020 at 17:19

looks nice for an estate, what ever it is ? Subaru something ?

peterattheboro · 2 Jun 2020 at 18:00

Legacy.

Basically it's Supergramps off Mighty Car Mods before the mods.

Audi TT Mk1 225. Getting to work, and weekend toy.

wingman · 3 Jun 2020 at 09:48

inb4 TT arches.

Mk1 TT's have aged so well. Interesting colour, too.

Any plans to modify? Are the 225's the turbo'd versions?

peterattheboro · 3 Jun 2020 at 10:19

1.8T I believe?
