What are the differences between the two?　The prices are about the same so im just debating with is better?

 

I have the Hipermax II's and I have really enjoyed them to tell you the truth... the ride is just a bit more stiff than stock, but the damping is excellent in my opinion. It's hard for me to give you a comparison between the Hipermax II's and the Tein because I haven't driven a car with the Tein's. I would definitely recommend the HKS setup to you though because as always the quality and fitment is excellent and the performance is a great compromise between track and street.

 

I have the HKS hypermax damper IIs. The ride is about the same as stock on the street. The Teins are alittle more track oriented with a higher spring rate.

HKS Hypermax II:....392lbs(7.0k).....336lbs(6.0K)....Adjustable

Tein Flex:.................504lbs(9.0K).....448lbs(8.0K )....Adjustable

Stock(USDM):..........180lbs(3.2k)....225lbs(4.0k) ......STOCK

The HKS should work pretty good at the track but not as good as the Teins. If your going to be mainly on the street go with the HKSs

 

I probably will go with the HKS since I dont track my car. BTW I heard the Tein EDFC can control the stiffness on the springs so that its softer than the stock ones.

 

You can even go with the Tein SuperStreet if you are not tracking your car. The EDFC will be compatible. The softest setting on these coilovers is more comfortable than stock.

 

but the upper mount of the Hipermax II will give way very soon, so i've heard.. making all those knocking sounds which irritates the h3ll out of ya... is that true?

 

go with tein,f*ck HKS

 

I've had mine on for about 6,500 mile with no knocking sound.

 

alrite...i'd guess its the roads here in malaysia then.... so many of the hipermax II users have the same complain.... even when i had my hiper-d on my other car, i had no problem at all and the rest of them were complaining with regards to this matter... even friends from singapore..sigh..... why is this so....

 

2ndly, from your chart, how come the usdm has harder rates on the rear compared to the front?

 

How long did they have them on the car before complaining about this knocking sound? What kinda cars were they on aswell?



It's not my chart. It's a sticky in this forum

Malaysia road surface suck.

 

I have the RS, and they are sweet.
For me the Teins spring rate are too much... bad road as well in Tahiti.

 

Zeal Function V6...and you'll never complain Hands down the most versatile coilover out there

 

with that price it better be good

Adam you been in a car with HKS Pro coilovers on the streets, how the ride?
