Progressive Dampening Coilover options? aside from Tein Basic

Aside from Tein Basic what all coils have the progressive dampening?

I don't want to bother with settings and so forth as only a daily driver.

I heard the basic is kinda harsh and was hoping there would be others with better ride quality.

Thanks

I would be very VERY surprised if any coilover for the Z or G has progresive valving, especially with a twin tube design. Degressive is the most likely valving used, linear is possible, but doubtfull. Getting Tein to share a 350Z shock dyno, even more unlikely still. Also, progressive valving is not a ride quality enhancing valving scheme.

For what you've spelled out, look at Bilstein PSS. You get monotube construction, degressive valving on both the rebound and compression side and mild spring rates. Another choice would be Cusco Zero 1, it add's full height adjustablity and also has a monotube construction. Eibach Pro-S would also be another choice which is a direct clone of the Kw Varient 1 and has a twin tube construction.
