thanks for all your comments guys

jschmid - It nice, handles well, right now its got 24 clicks and its at 11 from the stiffest setting. Smooth ride but you do feel the bumps. Tomorrow im gonna prolly bump it to 14 or 15 to see if its any better.

figo - they came off my old 5th gen but get them from ebay or even advanced auto parts might have em. the ones for the 5th gen accords will work. I got my teins for 850 shipped which i think aint bad... talk to Laosifu@aol.com

driftking - hell yeah

Accord Cutie - I dunno exactly, havent mesaured anything, i have a two finger gap though but the backs actually sitting alittle lower. tomorrow im gonna raise the back up just alittle, then once the springs settle and i have camber kits in I'll prolly take it so its just high enough to clear parking bumpers.

I wish all suspension jobs would go that smooth h:

And yeah, Tiens :drool: Those things are super nice. The shock body is about half an inch bigger in diameter than the stock pieces, front AND rear. The springs that came with the tiens were also real stiff. I think I got the car to bounce more from sidewall flex on the tires more than compressing the springs at a stand still

And we definately, definately lucked out on the minor mod we had to do in the rear to be able to get to the adjusters. Sometimes it's nice to be lucky and good

Dood....unless they modify the SS from last year (and I didn't know about) but it's only 16 way adjustable even tho it has more clicks than you are supposed to turn. Hope you read the manual before adjusting ith:

Welcome to the Tein club. I hope you like them as much as I do, great ride. Are you going to play around with the height at all? I'd try lowering the rear a little more and give it a meaner stance.

Mine only go to 16. I think the Type FLEX has that many settings though. Maybe that's what you have. The Tein's are cool though, I love them.
