    I'm trying to figure out the spring rates for two sets of springs or which ones are More aggressive/stiffer

    Tein & neuspeed

    I know progressive spring rates are very washy.
    I think the neuspeed are progressive?
    And tein are linear ?

    I've searched the tein a lot and either I'm stupid or it's hard to find info on that Particular spring.
    The neuspeed I believe are less aggressive then the tein.

    I have tein springs I believe there s tech race?
    They have a number on the brown sleeve on them

    Tein spr01-011350
    (No other markings)

    And

    Neuspeed

    55 02 25 F

    Made in Germany

    If someone could chime in would be appreciated

    Thanks

    I think these are for tein coilovers in the link you provided.
    I think the race/s-tech springs are different?
    I know the coil has much smaller diameter on the outside and gets larger in the center. Not too sure if the coilovers are like that too hmm

    Google returns that part number with a few dead-threads on non-Audi applications.

    It definitely sounds like they're progressive springs; intended to be a jack of all trades, but master of none. Take a good look at them and see if they're authentic following this guide: Tein Counterfeit

    I have Tein coils on my sedan (green color, no idea what type, came with car) and neuspeed sport on my avant.

    Neuspeed is progressive but it's stiffer than the Teins, the Teins feel like a factory suspension spring rate compared to the neuspeed.

    This never crossed my mind that they maybe not authentic I will have to look at other side to make sure there's no other markings. I had passenger spring off of car.

    One thing that was getting me was that the teins coil is clearly thicker then the neuspeed springs I have I will take a picture of comparison later today.
    Thanks for reply

    I had the Tein s type springs with oem sport shocks and they where nearly smooth as stock, switched over to h&r/bilstien and ride became much more harsh and body roll reduced substantially.
    The Tein springs rode lower the the h&r and softer, I liked them, never bottomed the suspension out either, in my wagon. Car was too low to drive around Michigan so I had to lift it
