Tein SS on 1g? anyone running them yet?

[Darktalon92]

Just wondering if any 1g guys are running the new Tein SS coilovers and if so what do you think of them?

Also what do you guys think of this setup compared to a Koni/DSS setup?

Thanks

i have the tien flex series, about the same as the ss but with pillow ball mounts, i love mine, but the great thing about tiens, is you can rebuild them. i dont know about the koni's. but i am pretty sure that the koni's wont compare the ride of the teins.

Ok no need to respond anymore cause I'm not getting the Tein's anymore, thanks

Do you know anyone who has used a Koni combo and has compared them to Teins - yourself included? I'd like to know how they stacked up in detail. If you could give details (or have someone you know respond), I'd appreciate it. I'm contemplating on whether I should pickup a set of Konis or scrap the Ground Control setup and go with Teins or JICs. Specifically, I want to know how much stiffer the ride is, how much better the handling is, and how they compare in normal driving conditions.

i dont know anyone with konis anymore, all the guys i know have teins or apexi. but the stiffnesss your asking about, the teins can be the stiffest springs you own but you can also make ride like one of the smoothest things you own,(16 way adjustabel)

if i com across some with the koni set up is will ask, but the only person i know that had them before, has teins now, and his car rides alot better. i am pretty sure he had the ground control coil overs with the konis to. i will have to ask
