I have these springs as well. You won't be able to sell them for anymore than like 130 shipped. Nobody wants them really because of the rear specs. They dropped my back like .2 inches and my front 1.5! I hate them looks obnoxious lol

Two things I took from this:

1. You obviously got a pair of fake Tein springs.

2. How did you come about your $130 shipped, for a set of brand new S-Techs?

the Tein S Techs do give a raked look. YOU...obviously have never seen them on an MSP. The MSP is already a dying breed so most if not all members buy their parts from reputable vendors and other forum members...none of that eBay crap.They don't drop the rear as much as the front. Ask anyone else on here who has them. Im running the S techs up front and stock RB springs in the rear due to that issue. Also, when I bought my s techs a few years back, I bought them off of here and paid no where near that much. Just sayin, GLWS but you see you are already lowering the price as a result of no hits.

I've been around this platform for 8 years and seen almost every single suspension setup imaginable. I never once stated that the S-Techs do not give a raked look, every practical suspension for daily use should have some sort of raked appearance. Not only for aesthetic value, but for practicality as well.

My price is more than fair, and as a result will only lower it if someone does local pick-up. Brand new springs, never removed from the plastic for less than what the reputable vendors are selling them for is not a good deal, you're right..

I think Tein listed them at 1.8" in front, and 2.0" in back...I'm on Tein SS dampers now, so i can't take a picture...but the 'reverse' rake was very slight in my case...it was about a finger width gap front and rear with 205/45 17" tires...back being maybe half a cm lower...
 
My front looks amazing, dropped it nicely looks slammed compared to the stock front rideheight. The rear DOES look raked with the S tech's I can even post a photo if you like, So buddy you obviously haven't seen them on the msp, maybe the p5 so don't get an attitude with me Sally. I paid 200 brand new from Sam at crossover. You might get 160 shipped if your lucky, it's how the game rolls dude..You shouldn't expect to get what you payed for out of even brand new parts. I wouldn't even be able to sell my steedspeed turbo manifold with 8k miles on it for anymore than 650 bucks..that's if I am lucky (and they are discontinued!) You shouldn't be on forums with that attitude, people like you irritate me.

Thank you for having my back dude, I am in no authority to criticize anyone's posts, prices but I call it as I see it. My rear from the S tech's has so much wheel gap you can fit a baby's head under it. I've seen S tech's with a couple thousand miles on them go for 80 bucks! New one's go for about 120..it's just how it goes, you don't go to a forum marketplace to pay full price for someone's stuff. New or used, this is a shared marketplace for bro's that like to share their love for their rare cars..and give others deals on parts they desire that you do not have a need for.

First, I am not your buddy. Second, I've seen more sedan's with these installed then you've seen pussy, or dick; whatever your preference. Third, who the **** is, Sally? Fourth, don't tell me how these forums work, I've been around these longer than you've been off the tit.
