So I recently picked up some teins from a member and I ran across a thread that got me looking online and start to question my purchase. Can anyone give me a second opinion on what I have

 

well, what is it that you THINK you have?
maybe a reference to the thread that got you in question would help?

 

is not the real Tein springs...?

 

Tein has a thread about counterfeit springs with bold print letters and numbers that look a lot like yours.

Google Tein springs counterfeit photo id, and you can check for yourself.

UH-OH, I just looked again, and your counterfeit is so bad it's even misspelled.

 

So conclusion real or fake? They don't have the sticker tein but the lettering is a question in my book, also, misspelled from where?

 

Lettering really smeary!

Si, definitely fake.

 

Those are made by Tein....AKA they are real...

 

The website that shows for those that don't know
http://www.tein.com/counterfeit

So far the only thing that has me questioning is the way the lettering is. The angle/tein mark are there but its the way the letters match the fake ones. All blotchy status. Anyone have some that look the same?

 

they appear real to me, looking at the site your Tein logo is not a sticker and its printed parallel with the spring. Just bring them to an authorized dealer in your area ( if there is one ) and have them look at it.

 

those look legit to me, why not send those pics to Tein and ask them?

 

Due to the fact 8 members have seen em a lot I thought my chances of getting a direct answer would be high. Besides that I don't think theres any dealers around me, as far as I know.

 

you can always find some fakes and compare the ones you have to the fake one

 

Compare these to yours. Might help a bit... These are REAL!!!

 

My vote is that they look real

 

Other than the blotchy lettering everything else checks out as real in my book.

 

How do you gather?

IMO, these look real, though counterfeits do typically get better in time.

 

They look real to me (I have installed at least 6 sets of S techs). But contact Tein and see what they say, they can run the numbers.
