Default S tech's -vs- Skunk2's

I've been doin the research and I've found that the tein s tech's and the skunk2's both claim drops of 2.4" up front and 2.0" in back. After looking at many pics here and reading many topics, I've narrowed my choice down to these 2. I do plan to get better shocks as well but my question is what is the real difference between both brands in this case? And in your opinion...who's better.

thx

S.Techs are lower just by a few mm. I have the S.Techs and my friend has the Skunk2s. Mine is lower and he has a box with 2 10s in his trunk.

skunk2 makes springs for the tC.. not the sleeves.

they're both the same drop but both springs have different spring rates.

You should just check which spring rate you like more the Skunk's or Tein. They are practically the same but you can also go with if you want red or green springs.
