I JUST got done installing these on my integra, and I can definitely vouch for the quality of them. They corner extremely well, and are super grippy around sharp turns at high speeds with my Falken Ziex's. The preloading is a bit tricky to figure out at first but once you get its no big deal. At first I thought these were bouncy, but I soon realized I was just mistaking bounciness or stiffness, because they are quite stiff. The ride isnt all that much worse than stock, but nothing I wont get used to. Id say definitely go with these over the Basics, as riding in my car with the Omni's is a night and day difference from my friends car with Basics. Yeah, the ride with the basics might be more comfortable, but honestly, you arent getting much besides a lower car with the Basics, meaning not much better handling at all. However, I havent ridden in a car with SS's or Flex's or anything higher up in the Tein lineup, so I cant critique those.
