What would you guys do? (coilovers)

So the coilovers I want are on back order... the HKS RS coils. and the price went up $100 more, which isn't much but the back order blahs. I'm waiting on quotes for the tein mono flex, tein flex, and tein super drift. They're all edfc compatible. So what would you guys do? (I don't know if any of the tein's will be on back order but if they aren't....) what would you guys do? Wait for the HKS's or get the TEINS, and which one? Also the HKS's are on a 2 week back order... supposedly.

HELP ME! if I can't decide I'll get my bumper and hood this month and get coils next.

we'll i'm pretty sure the mono flex and the super drift have to be imported from Japan so they're both going to be money. You shouldnt have any problem getting the fenders to sit well over the tires with the RS's

If relative comfort is of any importance to you and I'm sure the road conditions around your area isn't the greatest then I would just wait for the HKS RS. The RS have an 8kg/8kg spring rate where as the USDM Tein Flex have 12kg/12kg, Monoflex are 14kg/14kg, and superdrift are 12kg/10kg. Unless your roads are smooth I'd just stick with your RS which have received a lot of positive feedback on this and my350z forum.
