thought tein has the best spring for a smooth ride. i heard coil overs arent too good also.

^ i don't want to sound mean but you should do more reading
if you want a smooth ride try the a-spec set or stay stock
coilovers are pretty much the best option in suspesion modification out there depending on brand
the only downside is the price

Personal opinion, based on looks.
The rear of the RSX needs to be a touch higher than the front for several reasons that have been covered.

I hear it's hit or miss with the tein. My boyfriend has been running the sportlines for over a yr now and no problems what so ever, I just installed mine. Smooth as the day installed for him. Rides better than stock IMO

That's somewhat incorrect. If your car is 'floating' at high speeds you have shock problems.
