i love them, its a great ride all around and couldnt ask for anything more. they are by far the best bang for your buck spring.
I absolutely love them too!
The only thing is I can't get rid of my front driver side creaking. Tried extra washers, new mounts, etc. I think that it is just the spring and the brown spring insulators. It is barely noticeable, but I'm just anal and want it perfect. Anyone else notice that?
But yes I would definately recommend the Tein S.Tech setup. I'm on Koni Yellows and love them............Here are some pics the day we installed the suspension. Now that I've had this setup for about 3 months they have settled even more. I will get updated pics soon! Looking at those pictures in the post below really does not do justice. Wait until I have some updated pics...................

Polo I had the same problem, Try this. Remove all tose washers and install one big thick spacer. I used a big ass nut, 7/8 I think, but anyway the second I did the creaking went away ! I think it has something to do with too many washers allow movement and you can't get a proper torque reading on the struts top nut. Either way give it a try ! All you have to lose is maybe $2.00 and of course that damn creak!
Hope this helps you out.

hey jackalope, did u ever make it home to tkae those pics???
Geeeeez man I had to cut my grass first! lol! anyway here ya go.
Heres the front:::

Heres the rear:::
Now true if you look there is a tiny bit more room then 1 and 2 fingers width but not quite enough to be 2 and 3.
Anything else?
OH and if you look on the rear shot you can see the Tokico's and the Tein springs too! So just in case anyone doubted me
