^ They did a pretty good job w my alignment last time, but they waaayy over torqued my wheels. I think, the torque on the bolt-gun (whatever you call that) was set way high, like for a freight truck or RV or something.

You wana get it installed n aligned over there?

It's hard to compare the ride on my Tein Flex setup compared to other setups since that is all I've had. I have the EDFC controller to adjust damping force to help smooth the ride a little but it can still be a pretty stiff ride. I'm quite used to it, almost always riding on the softest damping settings.

Ok, so heres my deal with the Tein Flex.

Pros
1. Fully adjustable height and stiffness
2. Great quality

Cons
1. Better get EDFC if you plan on changing your stiffness for diff occasions (if its a DD and a track car) cuse you cannot adjust the rear stiffness, without taking the struts out. Front stiffness you can adjust from the engine bay.
2. You cannot slam your car on them. My rear height adjustment is maxed out already (see the pic below), while I am halfway on the fronts. Not that I wana go any lower, but its very strange for a coilover setup that I cannot go any lower on the back.


Dont get me wrong, I like em, but I wouldnt buy them again.

So would you suggest BC?
I have a pretty solid deal on Tein Flex plus EDFC but I'm debating getting BC instead. My car is a DD for the most part.

^ Well, like I said...

If you dont plan to track your car AND if you dont plan on slamming it,
Get the Tein Flex w/o the EDFC.

If you plan to track the car BUT not slam it,
Get the Tein Flex w the EDFC.

If you plan on slamming it,
Dont get the Tein Flex.

You don't need a camber kit to be honest. Waste of money if you're not going that low. Just get some toe bolts for the rear and you'll be fine.
