I'm in the same situation as you and posted about it not too long ago. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sus...coilovers.html

Tein Comfort Sport or Megan LP Series seem to fit the bill.

JICs, Tanabe, Megan and Stance. Those are in my order which are the softest. I have Tanabes, they ride soo smooth. Even better with the TEAS.

All the same, you can order custom spring rates with different companies. From what people say, the CS are great. I'm on K-Sport, but I like it stiffer. I have my dampeners set at the stiffer side and preloading. Given it can prolly go softer, but w/e.

Seriously I think the Tanabe's are great! i have them for about 2 years already and everyone thats rides in my car says, its really smooth and stock comfort. As a driver, i dont notice the difference that much. btw im riding medium all around cause stiff is just to damn stiff for my wheels lolz

If you would have to choose one of these JICs, Tanabe, Megan and Stance
that gives you the better bang for your buck which one would it?

BTW I appreciate all the 411, thats why I love this community.

Megan or BCR would be good.

BCR will be a little softer though, and if you wanna go really soft we can do custom spring rates for you.

Just shoot us a PM if interested
