wuts the real difference?
ok so i would like to state that I love sportlines and have nothing against them. So therefore my question is whaT is the REAL diff between eibach sportlines and Tenzos. R the tenzos going to crack in the winter or something? or is it just a stiffer ride. B/c to be honest I would rather have the spring be stiffer. So does ne one know these ans. thanks guys

Well I've been around the aftermarket for quite awhile now, and I've only heard of Tenzo brand anything as of last month or so. So that might tell you something. I can guarantee you ride quality and handling will be better with Eibach, as Eibach is dedicated solely to suspension. As far as a stiffer ride, I think the Eibach's definitely come out on top there, just check out their website.

I don't know much about the tenzo's but i hear they only hold there spring compression for a few months.
As for eibach they have a progressive style compression system. Which allows for you to have a smooth ride under normal driving conditions, but when you start taking corners or compressing the springs, they get stiffer.

i dont know... i just had a friend who put eibachs on his acura rl and blew the front struts 3 days later. He went out and bought KYB struts for all four corners cause the rears were on thereway out as well. I have nothing against Eibach at all. I think they are a great spring and i dont hear much about tenzo's... Sounds real foriegn to me

Tenzo is mainly an import company. They just recently started making stuff for domestics, to my knowledge. I had a friend with a real nice JDM style Civic, and he had a lot of Tenzo parts on it. This was about 4 or 5 years ago tho, so I'm not sure if they're still as good as they were back then tho.

I haven't heard anything bad about Tenzo springs yet. A bunch of people I know have them, with no major problems. Give you a hell of a drop thats for sure.
