Default H&R COILOVERS vs TEIN RA

need input from folks who have these on their cars, especially the folks with H&R's, cause they are outnumbered, questions with ride comfort, handling, alignment problems, tire wear, rubbing on 17" 0r 18",
thanks
karan

Everything you mentioned above is dependent on how you set up either coilover kit. Crank either setup to max compression / rebound and lower the car as far as it will go and you're going to run into alignment, rubbing (which is in no way determined by rim diameter), handling and tire wear issues. Set it right and everthing except maybe comfort will be improved.
