    H-Techs again.

    I've always been under the impression that if you get lowering springs you need to get new struts to work with them. Tein has an ad stating that H-Techs can be used with OEM struts. Can I trust this, or should I save up for new struts as well?

    you can use oem struts. the reason that oem struts blow in a lowered application is because the valving inside the strut sees higher shock levels than at stock height.

    the lower you go (S techs) the more you'll want new struts. the Htecs dont' drop as far, therefore you don't over-stress the struts..

    they'll still go out pre-maturely, but nothing drastic to speak of..
