Luv the Teins but the Bilsteins are second choice being that i rode in ED's car and liked them... Go Bilsteins

Thats pretty vauge. Best in what way? Everyone is different and what is your purpose? That will be the judge. I have the CS and I am about comfort and still a clean ride. Flex is good but a little stiffer.

I agree here. It really comes down to your preferences, driving style, and additional suspension mods if you have them or are planning them. I have the Tein CS (along with A LOT of other members.) I also have the EDFC, RMM Strut Bar, TRD Front lower control brace, Tom's Rear lower control brace, Daizen front/rear anti-sway bars, etc. I like a "sporty" but smooth feel when driving and these mods accomplish that. Some passengers think the car feels "stiff" or "aggressive" but everybody has been impressed with the ride quality with the car being pretty low and on low profile tires.

I used to own FLex I truly hated it .

Ive driven in Jrok car's and he has CS. They seem better than the Flex

Click here for my detailed writeup on Bilstein PSS and decision making process on choosing them.

My advice - if you want to slam your car to the ground (all the time or for shows) or have the flexibility of changing the dampening from inside the car (EFDC option), get the Teins.

If you want a lifetime warranty, hard but not too harsh handling, low but not tucked/ slammed look get the Bilsteins. I believe they are also significantly less expensive than the Teins by several hundred dollars.

Yup I checked out some sites and the pss is less expensive. I'm leaning towards those since it is a german company and must have a european type ride ala bmw. But I got a good deal for tein ha. I saw the write up on it but would like to hear more opinions about them before a unload the green. Thanks Dave once again for the advice

Can you guys shed some insight on how Tein CS vs Bil. PSS? Are they similar in ride or will the bilstein ride more like Tein HA?
