i have tein flex with edfc so u can adjust the stiffness between 16 points and ride quality is great when u put the edfc in soft ... buy the tein
how is this suspension with aggressive driving/track time...comparable to stock or much better..with the springs on the stiffest setting would u say it is a good track coilover

is ride quality similar to oem with the damping settings on soft?

im leaning towards these just because of the compatability with edfc but i want something that will also be great for the track

If you are looking to be more track oriented, you'll find yourself wanting more than the Bilstein or Tein Flex setup.

I was previously considering the Bilstein PSS9, but since I do want to start tracking more as well I went with the HKS Hipermax.
how do you like the hks hipermax...is ride quality rough and jarring, rattling everything or does it run close to stock when lowered at a reasonable ride height

ive been a few other hondas with different coilover setups and the ride is just horrible..everything is rattling and its just annoying ..never been in an S with differnt coilovers so want some opinions

i would not mind the hks if its decent for everyday

do you have any personal experience with either of these coilovers? or are you just going by hearsay.

i could say that slamming your car to be tucking tires negates any performance you have with your kw v2...
i think my ride height is good right now. i might be tucking a little with fresh tires, but not slammed enough to hinder performance.

and no i am not saying this from personal experience but from what i've read and researched. like i said, i was on the same boat.
