I have seen/heard a lot of GREAT reviews about this suspension but i was wondering if anyone knows about the Type I and the ride quality? I have a 2003 Acura TL and I cant find this Suspension Set-Up anywhere i heard the 02 Accord Suspension platform is the same as a 03 Acura TL (Does anyone know)? How low could this go on a TL with NOT sacraficing ride quality? I dont want to bottom out every bump, pothole, Etc. All feedback and comments are appriciated and welcome, Thanks!

there is a trade off...in order to NOT bottom out on potholes.... you need stiff springs. with stiff springs, you will feel every bump on the road.

Damn! so its one or the other HUH? Im really not too concerned about feeling every bump as much as i am as bottoming out! Would Function Type I or II be a good set-up as far as this goes?

I just ordered FF2s from Weksos and just waiting for UPS to deliver. Heard they're a pretty good set and I was actually going to get Tein SS, but my friend convinced me to try these instead. Gonna test them out on my EG and if there all good, I'll save and order a set for my EK.

well when they were on my coupe for about a month like that. that was december 07/janurary 08.

i have a hatch now but am still rocking the suspension just not as low. probably like a half inch higher. no complaints on my end i have had the suspension for about a year and a half. 100% satisfaction
