They just keep getting softer and smoother, I love it. They don't do too much for the car as far as handling goes, but my God they ride so soft and smooth. I have them set on 4 I may raise it to 5 because I want little crisper handling.

I'm glad you finally found a suspension you like!!! Ladies and gentlemen, this calls for a sexy party.

I've heard nothing but good stuff about Tein CS; thinking of getting them myself.

I just turned mine backward, 15 clicks from the stiffest and I now have the soft/smooth ride i've been missing . When I first got it, I turned all the way back, like 30 clicks or so and boy that was super smooth! But that wasn't good for the CS.

Tein instructions say you could internally damage the shocks at more than 16 clicks from full tight for sure on the HA's and SS-P's I put on my Supra and Scion tC.

I didnt know until someone said something about it. The manual instruction came with the Tein CS I got was in freaking Japanese.

Just another fine example of Tein customer support for the US market.
