Tien or Zeal?

Been saving up lately for my suspension...
Ive decided to spend up to $1000 dollars on my suspension rather than my headers.

I used to have Comptech springs but on weekdays I would have to travel long distances on highways to get to school. After replacing 3 Wings West lips and repainting my kit 2 times ive decided that I need adjustable coilovers so I can slamm the car on weekends only.

I cant seem to find the tiens on Tim's site anymore. It would be great to buy them off this site, id love to help out any way i can.

Ive heard the Tiens are a great setup to have. ( supposedly they are coming out with electronic system to adjust your ride from inside your car ) <----- one reason i want these so badly.

I am also interested in the Nex coilover system but i cant seem to find any for our car. (ive seen pics of TL's with them - Tanner and Black TL-p with gold racing harts c-6)

Gimme your input guys??? which is best ride quality? Easiest to adjust? Cheapest? Lowest ride?

BTW WHERE CAN I GET THE TIENS & NEX ( tim if u sold em i would definetly buy them off of you ! )

thanks.

If your looking at lowest cost the A'pexi WS is lower that the Tein's. Both good coilovers. If your have the $$$$$ go teins. Nex has the lowest ride height.

I just got some teins for my car and so far so good. There's 16 way adjustable ride and I have it set on 8. The ride is good, not too stiff. I had H&R sports springs and I would say the teins set at 8 is just a little bit softer. Check the cl forum. Some guys have it and also love it.

The Teins are selling for $925 groupbuy on Acura-CL.com. Do a search and you will find it.

I'm happy with my zeal b6s. zeal b2s are a little bit softer on the hiney.

I haven't ridden on the other brands, so I really can't compare.
