Ehh Todd has tien CS's on his IS... they are money! Jason has CS's on his 350, he says they ride smoother than stock...

Different strokes for different folks I guess. What kind of car do you have? Go around and find people with your kinda car with coil overs and ride with them. Find what you like.

i got tein comfort sport and edfc on my IS350 and i love them. i drove all the way to canada on the most comfortable settings and it was great. when i feel like speeding around off ramps and corners i can just push a button and change to the stiffest settings.

For Tein coilovers here's a good rule of thumb: If they're painted they're crap. If they're anodized they're good.

Speaking of crap, all the flash in the pan coilover companies should be avoided as well.

Omni, FF, D2, Stance, Megan. Crap.
there all crap

Tein are hit or miss depending on your application. On Miata's they come with terrible (IMO) spring rates for track, and you would need to spend more money to get the proper spring rates. I guess it all depends on what you want out of the setup.
