Coilover Question

I'm looking into getting a set of quality coilovers for my CL and am wondering if anybody on here has a personal reccomendation on which ones to choose. i'm thinking Teins or Ksports, preferebly Tein cause of the EDFC system. Also i'd be getting a camber kit and a new strut brace because I don't think my factory one will be compatible with aftermarket coilovers. Or on the other hand would i be better off with just a good shock/strut and lowering springs set up?

EDFC wont fit but the SS-Ps are sick. I love em. One think you should keep in mind. They aren't that stiff but a great ride.

Members on here haven't had much luck with the edfc system, the motors are too big for our CL's the only member that got them got used accord tein CS's and they don't make them anymore.

take into consideration about the roads u drive on too. Because some ppl have crappy roads, and some ppl have good roads, you have different opinions and biased reviews. I'm sure teins are good because people say so, but if your roads are good, almost anything would work (obviously brands that are reputable). If you aren't too crazy on changing the height of your car, shock/strut/spring combos work really well, as I hear they give the closest to stock feel. Good Luck. ( i have omnipower sport coils btw)

I got Tein HA Full Damper suspension. Haven't installed it yet but do you think it's worth spending the extra $ for the upper ball mounts???

Oh the HA would be like the Basic Teins. 16 way adjustable....
