Default Got a couple ?'s...

I want my car low but i dont want to sacrifice ride quality. I want Tein's so i can slam my GS but i dont want it to ride stiff... I used to have H&R coil overs on my VR6 GTI and it was good and all... But now i have a Lexus... Luxury car and dont want to ride like a rally car.

How is the Teins compared to stock?

I might just have to settle for L-tuned cause i cant ride around w/ stiff *** suspension...

I just had Todd install them today and took a little drive to Santa Barbara. Needless to say I'm very happy

I drove with them at the stiffest setting and wasn't bothered once

(I had Eibachs and KYBs before)

I wish I would have gone from stock to coilovers first

Like Rominl said, get the CS. It's very smooth BUT it won't ride like stock. Depends on what you are looking for, that's actually a good thing. It won't handle like stock though (and that's definitely a good thing ). The CS will not lower the car like the other Tein (Flex, HA, RA, ...). It is enough but it depends on your definition of "slam".

like rom a neo said, i have cs's and when i put them with my wheels. they had it tucking and said their were a couple of threads lefts and had them raise it cus i didn't want it that low...th cs's go low enough 4 20's but mayb not 4 19's or 18's? .. i can vouch 4 the ride and say that they r very very comfy, no floaty feeling but soft...a friend who had the l-tuned suspension rode inmy car and loved them aswell...good luck
