'00 echo here, springs question
i've got a 4dr 2000 echo, and i've been considering gettin some springs for a while. tein makes some s.tech's for the echo which are around 180, but i found these on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ZENN-...QQcmdZViewItem
they don't look very legit, considering i've never heard of zenn. however, they look just like the s.techs so maybe they're just rebranded. any opinions on this? |

I would go with the Tein springs, I also never heard of that brand. In my case I have both tein srings and shocks and struts, very good quality, and worth the money.

if your going to do something like a spring install, just do it right the first time so you won't have to do it again. i say go with teins. thats what i have and i love them

I agree with them, name-brand springs FTW.
Also, you're about 20 minutes north of me.. cool! |
