Hey, which would be best for droppin my S? I was thinkin Tein but i dont know whats recomended.

 

tein makes real nice suspension products. were you thinking along the lines of just lowering springs?? or a whole suspension upgrade??

 

i want it done right so it would be a whole suspension upgrade.

 

tein i have the flex kit on my dc2, very very nice suspension set up

 

i'd imagine the macpherson setup in the front is finicky at best and you want to make sure that the components are designed for each other-- that being said it's a good thing you are looking at a full upgrade

as said before tien makes good COMPLETE coil-over sets. though i have been told that the tien SS coilovers are a bit too agressive and a little too stiff.

 

i dont want something way too stiff... this is going to be my daily driver so i want something thats going to accomodate performance and comfort... but i guess i cant have both can i????

 

it's a trade off between ride height, performance and comfort.

you just need to buy yourself something with adjustable heights nad dampening rates. you can get coilovers like this put together in a package and alot of the times when set at their highest they are comparable to stock setups.

 

The Tein Flex is way too much for a person lookin for any type of comfort. Especially with the stock tire sizes, this setup is very prone to bounciness. Come on 12/14 if I remember right, that is over 700lbs of spring right there. On top of that you have a mac setup and add the upper pillowball mounts=not for the street. I have quite a bit of hours in my friends RSX trying to help him with his Tein Flex setup, but it was just too much for him. He finally sold them and switched over to our setup. It's a nice looking setup, but it's too much for the majority of people. It can be a trade off, but if you have a coilover that is matched to the customers wants and needs then there should be no trade off. The downfall with a lot of these companies is that they offer off the shelf rates which hopefully is in the ball park of what the customer is lookin for in terms of ride quality. But even then, you can't expect 1 setup to work for everyone. That is the main reason why we don't offer off the shelf rates and customize each setup for each customer. Rather do it right the first time if your going to spend over a grand in suspension.
