Tein SS coilovers

Has anybody actually tried these out with or without the EDFC? i'm interested in a budget coilover system and i found these with edfc and the pillow mounts for about $2k so it peaked my interest. lemme know what you guys think!!

I don't have the SS coilovers but I am running the Flex coilovers and love them. I opted for the EDFC as well and don't regret it one bit.

I had them on my car for about 4 years (20k+) miles with no EDFC. Tracked them as well and I had no issues with them. Definitely a bit unforgiving compared to the PSS9's I replaced them with though.

I just got mine installed a couple weeks ago.. So far I'm loving them, though i haven't tried any other coilover system before. I just love the way the car sits now. I have all the dampers adjusted to 8 clicks for now and thinking maybe adjust the front a lil harder. The ride quality (I feel) did not really suffer coming off the MR bilstein's. So all in all I have no regrets going with this coilover. Good luck buddy!

Unfortunately, I did not. I'm using the stock strut/shock tower mounts. I thought pillow mounts only came for Evo X. And for Evo IX, they require you to use your stock mounts. Unless they sold them separately???
