So just reviving an old thread here...

Where is the best place to purchase CL9 'Tien SS' coilovers in Sydney right now?

And where is the best place to fit? The only place I know of is Hannie's.

Anyone know about Tein Monoflex? Like how do they compare with SS,Flex and how is the ride comfort? Thank you.

Cheers

Tein flex - 14/8 (front/rear)
Tein mono - 16/10
Tein SS - 10/6

Stock i think is 6/4. Tein CS are 7/4 if you want close to stock. But pricey.
I have SS and its pretty close to stock imo.

Sorry for sounding noob but i dont know what those numbers mean, im guessing the closer to 6/4 the closer the ride comfort is to stock? And thus the tein mono's feel alot more harsher i assume than stock?

yeah the higher the spring rate the harder/stiffer the springs will be. You really need to ride in a car with the coilovers to tell how much stiffer the ride feels. My tein ss feels close to stock, and i use it as a daily. None of my occupants, gf, parents, bro really noticed a deterioration to ride comfort compared to stock. I know members with buddyclub N+ which is similar to tein flex in spring rates, and they find it comfortable.

If you're after a slammed look, tein flex or N+ are what i would go for. If mild-medium drop and want close to stock spring rates, SS for price and tein CS if you want better quality.
