Anyone installed these yet?

I'm pretty much a Tein... eh' hater probably...
I've had Basics on my ep3 and Super streets on my TSX

but they always are creaky and " squeeky"

Has anyone tried out the flex, not really WANTING them, but there isn't really alot of other options currently.
But i'll get them if thats all there is

- mike

 

for $1800 (+/-) i hope they don't squeek/creek

please post review when you get them on

 

tein flex are really good coilovers. the basics suck. flex FTW

 

I've been waiting to see if any other company comes out with Full coilovers, but have not heard of anything....

I have been thinking of the Flex's too. A fellow HT'er had the SS's on his FG2 and seemed to like them.

I just would have liked to have a few choices and reviews, but if I have to be the guinea pig, so be it.

I have had my Blitz wheels for months and do not want to put them on until I lower my Si.

Type X if you get them before I do, let me know what you think...

Maybe we can get a deal if we buy two sets...

 

I pm AMR on club civic and andy said they have coilovers for the fg 2

Does Tanabe have anything in the works? My friend had Tanabe full coilovers on his '98 Civic four door and it rode really nice for what he paid .

 

have you thought about the HFP setup Mike? obviously doesnt provide everything the Tein's do, but the ride quality is awesome and theres no squeak/creak issues. Noticeable difference in handling, minimal drop, but enough to clean things up a bit.

Hit me up if youre at all intersted, i'll hook it up

 

He already has the Comptech springs.

 

I think Megan makes a decent set-up for the fg2 and IIRC they were a bit cheaper than the Tien Flex's.

Your correct on BOTH points

Email was just sent to them with some inquiries
if they are answered and look good i'll order them when i get back from tennessee

 

H&R has a pretty sick looking coilover system out. procivic.com

 

The Megan coilovers are on my short list. I know a few people who have them on their RSX's and 7th Gen Civic's and everyone is happy with them. I've heard good and bad about all of the Tein coilovers, but mostly that they don't hold up very well in my harsh Canadian climate.
