Default D2 coilovers for 05 accord 6 speed / suspension / bounciness / comfort / tein springs

i had d2 coilovers on my 05 accord, they were damnn stiff and very uncomfortable, didn't have camber kit, had worn down tires, got alignments, but it would still be very bouncy, like stiff bounces, made you get headaches, and feel like throwing up sometimes, and i didn't think they were blown, but i will never know. i was thinking maybe it's because the front and rear heights were not equal and that accords are big / long cars so it creates more weight shifting which makes osscilation occur

has anyone had full coilover setups (or even the d2's) dat were similar to stock comfort?

i took them out, hated them, got falken tires, and tein springs on stock shocks, feels AMAZING and soft / comfortable, i love my car now

i have ksport coilovers, came out of same facility that makes d2 coilovers, basically the same thing except different name and color. these coilovers are ment to be stiff meaning you will feel every little bump on the road, if you do not want your ride to be that stiff then adjust the dampening settings with the *****. it will still be bouncy but less. if you want a smooth ride overall but a slammed agressive look go for tein coilovers, either get basics or superstreet. they are soft rides and the ride quality is great, better than tein springs on stock shocks...your shocks will soon go out later and then i recommend you change it to koni or kyb or tokico shocks. i say just go for tein coilovers...there are people selling used ones on gen7accord and v6p.

how can tein coilovers be more soft and comfortable than stock dampers?? stock dampers are like softest of soft, i dont' wanna take that chance/$$$ it's gotta be bumpy

on the d2's, i did more the damping settings all the way to low, it was softer but still harsh

You didn't try adjusting them? I don't have them on my accord, but I do have them on my nissan and with a few simple turns of the **** you can fix the problem. Just look for the settings that you like
