Tein Monoflex Coilies for Euro anyone?

[Crapdaz]

Hi,

Please don't flame me but i havent found the answer to this,

but has anyone run these coilovers on the euro and in your opinion whats the pros and cons? <-- these have superseded the flex type, with very slight softer spring rate and besides the monotube technology, any other things make these stand out?

Whats the Part No. ? For my own reference.

Regards, Daz :wave:

" The Monoflex are superior to the flex for 2 reasons. First, it has a monotube damper, which is stronger and can handle more pounding over the double tube of the Flex. Secondly, the Monoflex has microvalving which makes it have superior damping at low speeds. When you go over a small sharp speedbump (like the metal ones at bunnings), the Flex just crashes down. The Monoflex should have better low speed damping because of the microvalving.

For street, I find the Flex too stiff. For track, I find the Flex too soft. So if you were going for street, you can go for Flex, Monoflex or if you want something that rides comfortably but has the features of Monoflex, the CS (Comfort Sports, which is a cross between SS and Monoflex). If you want it very stiff for track, go for Buddyclub N+ or Racing spec. "
