Wtb Tein Cs, Tein Flex, Any Other Coilover Or Reasonable Spring/strut Setup...
i think my car needs some new suspension. it gets bumpy when i hit even tiny bumps. I am looking for some coilovers prefarrably. At an affordable price though. i dont mind what brand as long as they wont break down and more importantly will give a close to stock ride.
Am not looking to dump the car on the ground or what not. just decent lowering which will leave me with 0-1 or 1.5inch gap on the stock 17" rims is good enough.
spring/strut setup is welcome too provided it meets my requirements of height and ride . let me know people.
Thanks

hey
I thought the SS was the stiffest/bumpiest of the tein coilovers line.
i thought in terms of stiffness and bumpiness it went from CS to Flex to SS.
Can someone please advise.
Or in terms of these coilovers , are bumpiness and stiffness considered two different things?

one thing to look at is if the ride height is independently adjustable from the spring preload. flex are ss aren't.(unless they have changed) i have been out of the industry for 8 months.
as you drop the car there is more preload on some, translating into a rougher ride. while the flex have a stiffer rate, you may be able to adjust it to be a more comfortable spring rate.
