Out of those Id say Tein, but coilovers for 500-600 is kinda "ricey" in my opinion. Lowering springs and new shocks cost that amount. If I were to go the coilover route Id look at the more expensive kits, most of the time they are higher quality. Just remember you get what you pay for and when it comes to suspension you should not be cheap.

i think people use the term "ricey" way too freely...

What are you talking about? Tein is one of the best suspension company's out there for imports. And is $500-$600 "RICEY"?! If he were to pay $79.99 for cheap *** coilovers from Schucks, (and yes they do sell them. Sell outs!) then that might be ricey.

I don't know if you drive a VW or not, (judging by your avatar you do) but maybe you should check out this other site. It might suit you better.

Like oh my god and stuff, you valley girl?! I didnt say tein was rice you tard! I've heard nothing but good things about them. What I was saying was that you get what you pay for, I on the other had dont go cheap when it comes to my car. I dont think of a 600 dollar coilover to be the best, more like average. But then again this is MY opinion! 79.99 for coilovers MIGHT be ricey, Id think that would be ricey. Oh and about the avatar its just a vw emblem I made in photoshop, I have an accord, but then again if we are judging by avatars why are you here? The last time I checked this wasnt a street bike forum!

I apologize for the avatar thing, but $600 is a good price for good coil overs. And that's what the guy wants is JUST coil overs. Now if he said he wanted a good suspension setup, I would say he would be paying around $2000 for a full Tein setup. And if you haven't noticed, there is a motorcycle forum on Honda-Tech.
