Review
I had Eibach Pro-Kits installed on stock shocks previously. Though I liked the way it looked when it was lowered, I did not enjoy the ride. I have my Teins set up so they are as low as my Pro-Kits before (I am not into the slammed look and I frequently go to parking lots with speed humps/steep driveways therefore ground clearance is necessary). I absolutely love how these ride. I have read some reviews saying these are too soft. However, in my opinion they are just PERFECT for street setup. They absorb imperfections of the road BETTER than the stock shock set up. Though, they do not corner completely flat but body-roll is reduced greatly. Handling is greatly improved for spirited driving. Next summer I may consider taking it to the track after I get a set of new track tyres. After my experience with these coilovers, I am never going to do lowering springs/stock shocks ever again. The ride on these can't compare at all!

What I like
Adjustability to switch between fierce or relaxed driving.

What I do not like
Performs averagely.

I would say that I love how it ride! They are really just perfect for street setup! It's so suitable for the road condition in Singapore! They absord imperfections of the road so much better than the stock shock or stock spring set up. One thing I find out that they do not corner completely flat, but the body rolling is reduced greatly. I also love how the handling is greatly improved for spirited driving.

What I like
I love the way how they absord imperfections of the road.

What I do not like
It do not corner completely flat.

Review
Had never tried any of TEIN products, so this was my first. I had the coilovers set to about two fingers at front and 1 finger at rear. They ride brilliantly. It is the most comfortable coilover kit I ever tried, despite me expecting worse. I would say on the small bumps they ride better than stock. Only when hitting tough roads that I pushed these coilovers to measure how much they can perform. It was dry that day so I hadn't got a great feel of how powerfully they corner. What I did manage to find out was that it was much faster and easier to manouvre. When in an S turn, the car changes direction much more quicker. That was definitely what I was looking for. Quick in transition and small amounts of body roll!

What I like
When on normal city roads, these coilovers performs perfectly. Smooth rides throught the city! When pushed to its limits, it performs like a beast, with excellent suspension for the car!

What I do not like
These coilovers comes at an expensive price.

Review
These set of suspension coilovers are just insane! They can be set to give you smoother rides, or giving maximal sport performance! Had tested out the different settings, and was totally amazed by the performance it provides. Would highly recommend to those who are willing to spend on performance coilovers.

What I like
The adjustable settings for the style of ride that you want.

What I do not like
Expensive for a not so high-end coilover.
