How is it on freeways and streets? I'm concerned about the ride stiffness, particularly given the POS roads we have in a lot of places.

Right now, I can't quite make up my mind between the Flex, BC Racing, or Zeal. Decisions, decisions...

Tein flex is pretty rough on the freeway. During smooth roads you will love it which is rare in CA, but its pretty rough in the freeway. I have the tein flex and the edfc installed as well. If its your daily driver i would settle with something a little less stiff. Awesome handling though..

Oh yeah I have the Tein CS which is supposed to be more smoother than the Flex system, but still has the 16 way adjustablilty.
EDIT: And this is my DD also

I've changed my mind about installing my Z H-Techs springs with Tokico DSP-9 and just go with Basics. Man, I'm so indecisive.
Am I the one that talked you out of it?

+1... I have the flex and edfc installed. Great on smooth roads, stiff on bumpy roads. They are not that good for every day driving (in my opinion), but great for turns and curves. I settle for the sometimes harsh ride on the streets just to know that I'll have fun in the corners (when I get my car back on the road )
