Want some opinions on which coilovers to go with. I was looking at some BC BR, Tein Basic and Tein Flex. Its for my daily driver that I will autox a couple times a year so Im looking for more ride comfort then all out performance, but I dont want them to brake when tracked. Any feedback would be helpful. Thanks Mark

 

For the price of the Flex, you may as well consider the inverted BC RAM line too.

 

Yeah I thought of those as well. I think Ive decided to just go with the BRs.

 

KW? seems like one of the best brands out there

 

I thought the same thing about KW, but a few "suspension specialty" places seem to disagree. It's not KW as a whole, but the V2's specifically that don't get the best reviews (relative to their price, and other options in that price range); and unfortunately the only model available for the RA is the V2. Once again I don't know this first hand, just what I've been told by a couple different people, known of whom know each other (i.e. bandwagon influence).

 

Tein basics are great, but if your car is going to see track or really bad road conditions, your better bet will be to go with Mono Tube coilovers. For the money I would recommend HSD coilovers. If you are cost conscious you can go with BC, they have a good warranty and after warranty program.

 

Thats the reason I think Im staying away from the Basics. Ill look into the HSD havent given them any thought.
