Re: ***OFFICIAL 8G Suspension Thread***
Your issue may be the way the coils are wound. Normally with progressive rate springs, you'll see a bunch of closely wound coils near the top. Sometimes these coils can rub on each other on compression and cause some noise.
Tein sells a specific product to deal with this: http://www.tein.com/products/silencer_rubber.html
OR, you can wrap the coils that are close to each other with spiral cable wrap; something like this: .
It's worth a shot. Also, double check all your bolts (and re-torque) everything.

Brand New
Re: ***OFFICIAL 8G Suspension Thread***
That is beside the point.
FF uses cheap materials, lack of differentiation between dampening settings, poor dampening to begin with, poor customer service. There's a dedicated/official FF thread in A&C. Try checking there also. Some say they swear by this brand, but I am not convinced. It's all about what you want to do and what you want out of the suspension.
What are you looking to do? Dump it (form >> function), track it (function > form), just lowering? What's your budget?

I've been running the Raceland's on my car. Perfect for a daily and it rides just as smooth as stock, not bouncy at all.
