Default Coilover Question

Ok so im trying to decide what brand of coilovers to get in the spring when i get back for my 91 civic.... so far its between two of the heavy weights..... Tein SS and Skunk2 Pro C's.... id like the input of anyone that has had these one their cars, or have ridden in a car with them.... and if you could tell me things you liked and didnt like about them(everything has a flaw) that would also be appreciated

Thanks Eric

ive got kyb gr2 shocks and skunk2 coilvers. there's suspension travel, but its not that much and it's not bouncy. i dont think you can go wrong with tein either. good luck on your setup

Wow, fellow maritimer

anyways, you want to go with GC/Koni yellows. I'd consider that combo more of a "Heavy Weight" then either of the two you mentioned.
