Question Stock wheels/Tein Flex

Hey can anyone give me some feedback on the ride quality when using the Tein Flex with stock 16's???? I am in a hard spot with this kit. I really want the sofness back in the ride, and I might have to give up the look....

dude - adjust your settings, the flex is close to a stock ride. I have the TEIN HA's and love them. The price you pay for performance and appearance bro!

Rockero28, pm or email me mariuszjedra@hotmail.com if you decide to go with the Tein flex. It just so happens I ordered a set with the upper pillar mounts and the EDFC (which is absolutely amazing) for my car. Maybe I could even talk to static and organize a little group buy.

Default Tein/Stocks

Hey I already have the Tein Flex installed... I am not too familiar with the kit and settings... Is there anyone in So Cal, LA that might have time to meet up and check out my kit?? I may be missing something..... Everyone seems to tell me that the kit is a soft ride.. But I don't feel it so far. Or maybe it's just me.

Check the specs in the owners manual.

Make sure they did the lowering with the lower perch and the fine tuning with the upper perch.

The manual has dimensions that you can compare yours to.

Other than that, you could try the stock upper mounts instead of the pillow ball. That will soften it up some.
