Default Tein Comfort Sport Coilover

Anybody here use the tein comfort sport coilover? Was going to buy it but wanted to make sure it's NOT going to ride like a gc/koni civic.

Other options I was considering were the S-tech or High-tech springs, but teins website wasn't clear on what strut/shock is a good compliment to their springs.

Swift springs also crossed my mind, but again what strut is going to pair well with the spring.

If you have used this coilover please let me know what you thought about the ride quality. I am looking for a high quality unit for an automatic car that will NEVER see a track.

Tein CST sounds like what you're looking for, if you want to avoid riding like a Civic and don't plan to track. I haven't run it myself (I am a Tein SS guy, I like a hard ride!) but users on TSXClub.com and Acurazine have said it's damn near stock ride quality. The only time you wouldn't want to run Tein CST is if you planned on tracking the car... which you don't. I say go for it.

i just installed the cst on my 06 tsx and my car rides just about stock. its an amazing coilover set up and wouldnt change it for the world. it also improves the handling over the stock suspension a lil bit.

overall i give this coilover kit 10/10 for what its meant to be used for and that is COMFORT with a SPORT LOOK!

I have these on my 05 Honda Accord(North American). They ride amazing! I usually have my Wife and Kids ride around with me, and no complaints. I grew bored of the ride and switched out the 7kg fr/4kg r springs for 8kg fr/5kg r. Tein said I was fine within 2kg spring change. The adjustments are very precise and you feel the difference with every click.

We sell more of these CST than anyone else (from Tein's mouth) and I recommend them to people looking for a stock or softer setup. These are very VERY smooth and comfortable and go pretty low, despite the measurements Tein has up on them.

They ARE soft though so if you are a sporting guy the SS might be a better choice. "ride better than GC/Koni" is a bit ambiguous since GC offers lots of rates and Konis are adjustable for stiffness....you might have had a firm setup before that the SS is going to be better than.
