At the moment i have a set of Tein RA's fitted...
I have got my license suspened for a while and my car is just
sitting at home...
Is it a good idea to leave it in, or is there any other better ideas...
The sus are about 5months old and travelled about 6000kms...
Thanx

I really dont see the issue in leaving them in. Of course taking them out would result in less "strain" than leaving them in.

But without driving, and putting stress on them, I see no real threat to their wellbeing.

Really depends if you can be bothered taking them out, and having them reinstalled.

If you have to pay someone to take them out, and re install them then its not worthwhile. Especially when you factor in wheel alignments etc.

driving on them would put more strain on it don't you think? anyways, it'll be fine.

Just take it around the block once in a while to keep it all lubed up and functioning. i mean, literally around the block then thats it

Any comments with Tein RA? I know it is the top of range coilovers.

Thanx everyone on the comments...
thats what i thought but just wanted to make sure..
and on Tein RA's they ar top sus...

i c a big difference in exiting a corner comparing with the zeal's
i had before... (not sayin zeals ar not good just that i dont like them)
it sort of gives u a push as soon as u exit a corner when ur foot is on the acccelerator, and u feel safe to put ur foot on the accelerator... (like u know it wont let go)

but one thing is they ar pretty stiff...
something not everyone wants...
sad thing is they have stopped production with the R series now u would have to pay more for the same preformance...
