Coilover recommendation for DD

I've been looking and looking but haven't seemed to find the right thread with the right info...

besides megan co's.. what would be a good coilover brand for a daily driver? for the LA folks.. i'm on the 405 going from culver to sylmar and back.

i was recommended teins but i wanted to know what other brands are good for the '10 tsx. also i'll probably pick up a set of 18x8 a spec wheels. OR fly to seattle and do a roadtrip to vancouver and pick up a set of those SE wheels.

Wrong section but I adore my teins. In fact talking to a lot of tuning shops they will charge less for installing teins because they are a higher quality product and they usually dont rattle so people dont come back bothering the shops.

TEIN coilovers are the best setup for a daily driver. The have ride height adjustment and damping adjustment if you get the SS. They are valved with a DD in mind and are great quality. They also reuse the stock top mounts to keep the ride comfort. But if you want something with more adjustability get the XLR8 ISC coilovers. They offer more ride height and dampng adjustment, a fully threaded shock body, and include aluminum top mounts.

BC are great too just a bit higher priced.

And why wouldn't you just fly straight to Vancouver?
