Best Street suspension for a 05 Euro

sorry to hijack thread.
in your honest opinions are coilovers better than springs + shocks?
im wanting to lower my car. but don't know to go teins or eibachs + koni's

thanks

if you only want to lower and not change height after then go for eibach + koni (this option needs you to plan out your mods in order otherwise your stuffed by forking out more money to change height).

coilovers have flexibility for tracking for spring stiffness, and for height adjustability if you get larger wheels or bodykit installed afterwards.

downfall coilovers might be too rock hard or noisy for you.

Then go for spring + shock, or Tein SS or CS if you still want height adjustment..

thanks for the info guys
so best option for flexibility comfort and handling would be the Tein SS?

Tein CS. And you can't get both comfort and handling because you need stiffer spring rates for better handling. It is a balance.

got any idea of pricing for CS i know Tein SS are around 1300 from one of the traders

CS is more expensive. Should be around a similar price to flex and monoflex.

CS is discontinued now i think....

and would be about the same price or more than tein/monoflex.

No, Tein CS is still a current model. http://www.tein.co.jp/search/search1...CST&make=HONDA

why would it be the same price or more expensive than monoflex?

Because it has all the same features as Monoflex, but with softer springs and valving for softer damping. It has the same monotube, microvalving, lower height mount, upper pillowball mount and anti-corrosion teflon coating.
