^^ are you at the recommended ride height or lower? I have some basics ready to go on but just wondering how much going a little lower will effect the ride.

Sittin' on Tein Flex. I can't stand the harsh ride when driving in the city of S.F.
On the track it might be alright (haven't tried), on regular streets...it's too much for me.

Well... the whole point of me to testing them was so I can put them on a spectrum. I have a handful that I've already tested and would like to continue adding them on. Originally, I was shopping for a coilover set-up, but I already bought them. Now just creating a spectrum as a resource.

It would be stupid to get anything other than the BC's when it comes to entry level coilovers. I still would go koni/GC though if you're serious about handling. And stay the hell away from teins if you want something competitive... total garbage.

Got my set-up and love it. Just looking to expand the spectrum.
