Default anybody has TEIN SS (Super Street)

im thinking about getting a set of TEIN SS, i've had TEIN SS on all the cars that i used to own....but i would like to get feedback from you 2nd GEN GS owners..
i know TEIN CS ride quality is really good but too bad they dont go that low like TEIN SS (3" drop is very tempting..)

01 HONDA ACCORD V6 SEDAN - rides really nice even though its slammed...pretty close to stock i would say

04 SCION xB - feels too soft, probably the car is too light...

95 Nissan 240SX - too soft for my taste...

so im really not sure if i should get it for my GS300
please let me know.....

thank you

I believe the SS quite a bit stiffer than the CS. The new CSv2 is a bit stiffer than the old CS and might be able to go a little lower (not 100% sure). If you want a step up in stiffness and better handling I would recommend the Flex. I got a chance to drive another guy's GS with CS and Daizen bars. Even he agrees that my car can run quite a bit ahead of his in the handling department. The CS is meant for what it says...comfort series. The flex can also drop down REALLY LOW. It has enough adjustment to where I can sit my front bumper on the ground if I wanted to.

It also happens that I have a set for sale too

I have the TEIN SS coilovers and I like them alot. I initially had the car lowered to a zero finger gap, but had to raise it up a little because i was rubbing. At a zero finger gap, the ride was pretty stiff. When we raised the car to a one finger gap that made a huge difference in ride quality, plus no more rubbing
