For looks S-TechsFor ride H-TechsI loved the stance on my Vibe when I had S-Techs, I just wished for a softer ride once in a while.
Vibe is gone and will be missed as I've gone country style

The pictures I've seen of members here with S-Techs v. H-Techs have been very close on the stance. I almost can't tell them apart they seemed so close. Both do look good to me.
