i want coils, the body roll and handling must be improved for awd's as well as allowing to adjust ability for the winter months. and of course eliminating the wheel gap. GIVE ME COILS! please TANABE and make them with the TEAS system!

How do these compare to stock (comfort wise) on their softest setting?

I used to have an S2000 with about as much suspension travel as a skateboard. But now I live downtown and commute on some crappy roads. Looking for something tolerable, but spirited enough to still have fun when I get the chance. I know stiff does not equal better performance, and that it's completely possible to have a softer ride that also handles better.

But I don't feel like booting $1400 for Tein CS.

You make a great point Wyatth. I am also thinking about the same factors...I want a smooth riding car but also want to be able to stiffen it up a little for some spirited driving.

Glad you understand and agree.
Hopefully we'll get some response from Tanabe or other consumers regarding ride quality.

My buddy just got the Fives on his IS and he says they are good. I went for a ride in it and it is pretty good. It handles well. I'll give them
