^^ the softness can be set to stock obviously... i dont like bumpy shitty feeling rides when its super stiff on the streets....especially in a luxury car... I mean we dont race the car on a track everyday....so Id expect a majority of people on here to set it to the most comforting setting no??

I guess I'm down for this b/c it seems like it's the closest thing we have to a stiffer setup and it seems that everyone is in agreement that this is their 'higher quality' line. I think my Basics are too 'mushy'. And I'm afraid that another Tein setup may offer more of the same.

H&R seems to have a pretty good application and I might look into those. But I would also like the option of being able to adjust my dampers. If Buddy Club had an app, I'd be all over that.

The Flex sounds like to me its a beefed up version of the Megans. The Megans I believe have seperate spring and shell case for independant control. However I'd believe that the Teins are probably of higher quality.

I'm riding the SS right now and I'm very happy with my drop and ride comfort. Right now I'm slammed to the floor and my ride quality still feels stock, but thats of course on FL roads. I would be singing a different tune if I was in NY.

Most people who want stiff are people down South or out west. They have no idea how our roads in the Northeast are. Dude I'm telling you, my ride went from fkn harsh to luxury as soon as I got to North Carolina.... and I didn't even change a dam setting... LoL

But if you're saying FLEX is that great, I need to ride in it before I believe that.
