Default tein ss vs. tein flex

ok ive seen the ss vs the gc, but not this. the only difference i know about is the spring rates, flex being 559 front 335 rear and ss being 447 front 224 rear. now my question is what would be any other differences. maybe any pros and cons of either system with the edfc.

the tein flex has a full shock rod travel. unlike the ss.

the flex has a threaded shock body which allows for maximum lowering yet still gettin full shock travel.

the ss doesnt not allow full suspension travel if your dropped too much. the more you lower. the less your suspension travel is. kinda hard to explain but take a good look at a picture of both of em and you'll understand!

check out the pics. u can notice how the shock body is. the ss has a longer shock body that is solid and is threaded only for the perches.

the flex is threaded all on the shock body which u can move the perches and the bottom piece of the shock..

ive rode on the flex's and they are really smooth!
