which Tein coilover would u recommend
I have a '03 gs300. was wondering which tein coilover I should run. Im looking for a coilover that I can go the lowest with and would have the most comfortable ride. dont really do any spirited driving on twist and turns, so I just wanted a coilover with a slammed ride height and a good comfortable ride.
thanks!
thanks!

megans?...but if you want teins ....flex, ha's
im not a real big fan of teins lol
Stance, Jic's, something along those will def get you low and be comfortable

yeh megans and stance seem to have good reps and go low. no real need to go tein.
btw "Slammed" =/= "Good ride/Comfortable" ...if you are really slammed you need to be pretty damn hard to prevent bottoming out and slamming the fk out of your upper arms. Ideally you cut holes in teh strut towers for the arms to clear... But yeah you will always need a pretty 'hard' ride to ride slammed with a GS..

imho, tein cs offers a modest drop (when all the way down) at which you could prob get away with simply getting a s/s combo like DFs. i've read/heard flex go pretty low; however the ride is stiffer or harder than CS.
imho, if you're gonna dish so much $ for coilovers, then you might as well do it right (JIC, HKS to list a few). i've had espelirs, CS, and finally HKS...love the latter. CS didnt go low enough although the ride was very plush. HKS offers low ride and comfort
moving forward, i'd suggest to find a fellow with CS and flex in your area and request a ride.

I would suggest going with a set of BC Racing coilovers.
They will go lower than the Teins and they provide a nice ride in conjunction with their dual-height adjustability.
They also come with rubber mounts which help eliminate NVH.
Feel free to PM us for more info or Pricing
