Hey, i am purchasing a set of Tein RA Coilovers. I was wondering how comfortable they are for everyday driving?

All sugestions are welcome.

They are made for the track, so I guess the question is do you like a firm to hard ride?

pm macoman69... he's got a set of RA's on his dc2r. When i drove his car, it feels firm and ride comfort wasn't that bad.. except this was on the lowest damper setting and we never got the chance to put the rate up fully.:thumbsup:

Its good. But you definitely feel bumps.
Sometimes it can catch you off guard so if you have a lot of bumps and pot holes in your area then probably steer clear.
Otherwise they are good I enjoy them and I still find that i can use them on the street.

compared to my flex's with 10kg/6kg springs, the RA's are quite good. Dampers are much better but still 14/10 springrate is stiff. the ride quality really depends on the road u are on.

Well, i came to a conclusion about my Suspension. I decided i am going to purchase a set of Cusco Zero 2's. Overall i heard they are very good quality coilover, they also have 5 stage adjustment where as i dont think the RA"s do.

zero 2's i hear, are really good. Better than flex's. Id get them if had the money. If u want to go all out theres ohlins, sachs, arogousta and quantumn.
