If you really can't live with the ride harshness, then there isn't much choice... Do you want to lower your car from stock height? Or is stock height alright for you?Quote:

Surely the softest damper setting could accommodate a few kgmm lower springs?
Seems like a few people are saying remove and sell purely for others benefit ie to buy his Teins..
Just sell the Flex and buy some SS. It'll do you just fine.
Ride height with stock sussy, and 17's is like a 4WD!!!! :) Dunno why you'd do that. stick with 15's or max 16's IMHO. But that's jsut me... I think you're being soft. hahahaha. sorry.
Why should he make choices based on what you like?Quote:

I'm all for Tein Flex. I have that on my far comfy Accord Euro (which makes it more bumpy than a stock DC2R). If he can't accept the ride quality at the softest damper setting... then there isn't much to do short of spending more money to get SS springs (which are not commonly sold in the 2nd hand market, he will have to either swap with an SS owner or buy new ones)Quote:

No well my main reason is this is my second Type R DC2. My last one got stolen at my work. I loved it and it was what I wanted back. Since then I drove to Melbourne to buy a new one because there is none up here in Sydney and if they are there beaten up and over priced.
So coming back to my point. I didn't mind the 17"s on my old TEG I must say you are right it looked weird on stock springs and 4X4 like But it looked better then my current one. So thats why I am trying to meet half way or work something out where I can get the look again but still have the advantages of handling I have now...
Get me!
Yeah... I know. I just dont like 17's on DC2's. That's personal preference though! If you like it, that's awsome!
Did you want height adjustable coilovers though? If so, i'd go with Tein SS.. they are Super Soft (hehe) and great for the street - also able to lower.
Haha... I'm not soft I just don't like a bumpy ride and my last TEG had 17"s on it and wasn't this bumpy at all... So my only assumption is that chucking another set of 17"s on this would be a crap load worse. I'm fine with the way it drives now and I would probably live with it (would have avoid parra rd etc) but with 17"s no way.Quote:

These are my old rims on my TEG. I don't know what size they are because it came like that from Honda. Then my new TEG with the standard rims. Me like the old ones a lot better.
