Yo man, how you been? Haven't seen you post around here in a while. You still got the CL? I remember you bought the WRX wagon, did you pimp it out yet?

Does this include everything you need, ready to install? Cause I know some coilover kits come with just sleeves and springs only.....And they are made to fit the CL-S.... 100% flawless??? Please let me know.....Thanks in advance...

yes, they have everything you need. Those coilovers that just come w/ the sleeves and springs are not TRUE coilovers. These are and are also probally the best on the market

Do you think it would be a wise choice to buy these, and sell my Comptech Springs instead of investing in Koni shocks??? I am split, but I think that is my best choice.......what do you think?

Sup Jrock, yeah I've still been around. I still have the cls and the wrx. Your cl is coming along very nicely. The wrx wagon is coming along pretty well too.

Acurcr, the teins are a complete coilover system. Teins are very highly regarded in the aftermarket industry. They are arguably one of the best coilovers available. As most if not all suspension systems out right now, they are actually designed for the accord v6 but they do fit on the cls. Numerous people are using this coilover set on the cls with great success.

honestly, in my opinion, yes. You'll spend 500 or so dollars on shocks. And you could probally get 220$ for your spirngs. SO these would be only about 200$ more plus they would ride and handle better. YOu will have alot of options w/ the tiens such as adjustability in ride quality along w/ ride height. The koni's will be adjustable but not to the limits that the tiens will be. And at 900$ they are a steal.

Well, a lot depends on what you are trying to achieve. Coilovers give you the ability to raise and lower your car at will and the teins come with adjustable dampening control. Which is something the lower end coilovers do not have. Comptech springs with koni's are a good choice if you are willing to stay at that one particular ride height. The comptech gap is too big IMHO though.
