So I have been researching these two coilovers and I wanted some user reviews or thoughts on each one. I was thinking tein basic or tanabe sustec pro s type 2. I own a 4 door lx sedan;Do any fellow 6th gen members have any experience with any of these?

trust me man I have done some searching today and its like a 50/50 some swear by teins while others disagree and love the sustecs. There both same price I know I can't have both ride comfort and handling and honsetly I'd rather have more handling then the comfort. Any help making the decision is appreiacted thanks guys.

Gaaahhhh......... Alright, let me start off by saying that I have never owned either one. BUT from what I remember people saying, the Basics have a little more of a softer ride, while the Tanabe's are a little more on the stiff side.

It's all a matter of personal preference. If it were me, I'd get the basics because I live in a city and the roads suck balls.

IF you're a puss and don't like a stiff ride, go for Teins Basics.
