Default Ordered TEIN Basic Coil-Overs

I just ordered my TEIN Basic's from Creative Compacts today and I should have them on by the end of next week if all goes well. This means I will have my Gold Line Springs for sale soon, I will be asking $120 OBO Shipped and they only have 3,000 miles on them. I love the drop from the springs but the stock struts are way too soft for me.

Hey look my first post! ok enough of that.

To the Tein elite, do you still have the stock struts on your ride with the Tein's? And if so how does it roll?

I want to get the Tein's but only if I don't have to swap he stuts right away...that's to baller for this wallet.

I think everyone in this thread is talking about coilovers, which replace the strut and spring.
