I have logged about 20K miles on these, and I'm not gonna lie to you, they are pretty stiff. I dont really mind it much though. They are a great value for your $$$

Aren't they adjustable though? How do they feel at the softest setting?

mine dont have a setting for hard or soft. There are some Teins that do, but not these to the best of my knowledge. Thats why these only cost around $800 vs Teins @ $1200+

Damn that sucks I was ready to purchase a set for like $750. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to save up for some Tein CS coilovers.

I'm glad I found this thread as I was getting ready to purchase a set for $770. I'll be saving up for the Tein CS coilovers as well.
