I've heard of a few having problems with the Teins. Plus, KW drops lower and they are a awesome company.
I'm biased.

Shoe recently ordered the basic Teins, try bugging him and seeing if he's installed them yet. I'm fairly interested too.

already ordered the KW's.
i've read a few good things about them and they're exactly what my wife's Mini needs. Pre adjusted, just set to soft, lower 1.5" and drive off.
