*Official* xB2 TEIN H-Tech Spring thread (56k-grab a beer!)
Hi, somewhat new to this site. Got my h-techs installed yesterday with stockies for now. The ride is a bit softer than I was expecting, but the overall ride is pretty smooth. Hopefully my oem shocks hold up for a couple years. I was hoping for it to be a bit lower but overall I'm definitely happy with these.

I waited until I had my rims on to post, s tech with 18 8.5 +35 Enkei Kojins no spacers 225 40 Falken AZENIS

Anyone else switch from Tanabe NF's to something else and had an overall better experience? Even tho they are out of production I've been searching for places that may still have some in stock or even used ones. Are the Tein springs the best replacement for NF's or is there anything better?
My last xB (totaled, RIP) I gave up searching for the Tanabe springs and got the TRD springs and shocks instead and was not happy with them. The ride was way too bouncy, probably due to the dampers not really being all that good. This time I have a newer (2015) low mileage xB (32k) so I'm gonna stick with the stock dampers and want to find the springs that will compliment them the best without being bouncy.....A bit stiffer ride is fine as long as I'm not bouncing around. Was really disappointed with the TRD setup not going that route again.
