if this guy runs his car this low with comfort sports then i think comfort sport will be fine for me.

This matrix is interesting for those who want an idea of the differences between different teins for our cars

well when you go to the height you got your car alot of coilovers are out of your reach cos they'd just be sitting to close to the bump stops to give you any travel so eighter rase the car or flex is your only option in the tein range that will give you the best ride ...by the way flex is not so rough on the street if set right

thanks mic for the info. always good to get all this info out there to everyone on the forum. For people who are after a ride not as low as mine, i reckon they should consider the CS an option for a coilover upgrade.
regards.

same, i also have the flex...and judging from pics before, my ride height is about the same as Mano's....was gunna raise it up after the kit was put on, but it was too late.....my side skirts became a casualty! :cry:

when rims go on, should bring it up an inch or so, depending on rim size and rubber
