Tein SS Coilover VS Tein Basic Coilover
Tein SS Coilover VS Tein Basic Coilover

I've been reading throughout the forum trying to absorb as much info as possible and I still need some more feedback. The main thing I am looking for is a smooth ride. And what is the main difference between the 2???? Thanks in advance for any feedback

He has no gap on his setup. His stock wheels tuck. I just got the SS and haven't had a chance really to mess with it.
