Nuespeed Supercup Kit or Tein Street Basis?

I've had coils and I've had quality matched lowering springs and struts, and cup kits. I've transitioned from old school VWs, so Nuespeed has a great reputation in my book, and I want something that will handle well without sacrificing too much ride quality and without breaking the bank. I dont believe in winter mode besides snow tires so Ill likely never adjust height on coils or the Supercup kit once I have it set to where I like.

I dont see many people on here with the Supercup kit, can anyone chime in on the ride quality as well as heights? I'll be sticking with 17s and 18s. I found a deal on the Tein Basis coils, but after looking into the price new, they're in the runnings.

What say you, suspension gurus? Also open to other suspension ideas.

We don't have much experience with Neuspeed products on these cars, though I think people have run their springs with some luck.

The Street Basis are a great entry level system that offer ride height adjustment. They aren't too sophisticated and don't have any damping or preload adjustment, so you shouldn't plan to go too low on these. If you just want a small drop and a sporty ride for daily driving, the Basis are the way to go.

We have them right now for $531 not including shipping.

The Nuespeed kit isn't much more than the Tein kit, but budget coils always worry me in the long term outlook. I'll make a decision after I purchase new wheels and get a better fitment idea
