Default Tien Full basic coilovers

I was just wondering about this set, it seems that the dampening is not adjustable unlike buying konis would be, but they are a full coilover and come with a great price... Anyone have any expierence with these coil-overs? How do you think my ride would be? Any feedback is welcome, thanks in advance.

nah they're not worth the money. adjustable dampers are key to a well tuned suspension. get the konis or at least the tein ss. i have had the ss on for about 2 weeks - so far so good, i really like em.

Well, for the money (under 5 and a half ) they're a pretty good deal and ride good on a daily driver, if you don't plan on racing on a course but want a good suspension setup and ride. Have them on my DA and EK hatchback... rides a little stiff on the DA but very smooth on the EK hatchback.

they are just that basic and if you accpect anything more out of them then you're a lil slow. im going with newman if you don't race or don't plane on then get um if you want to spend that money. personally i would go with springs and some non adjustable aftermarket shocks if you just want a lowered stance and smooth ride, but if you want low you will have to go with a combo like GC/koni's which will cost you around 600, which is more then you can get the basic's for (according to newmans shamless plug ) its up too you
