yeah...... me too agree that tein SS would be one of the softer high end adjustables.... main diff would be that its not mono tube, thus giving it the comfort due to longer stroke, but not designed for track focused application or when lap times matters........
if daily driving, long distance driving, carrying the family to places but still wants something better than OEM (more on harder damper and adjustability) then SS will do,.... if u really worried about comfort, better not change the OEM ones cos thats the best..... there is always give and take..... comparable to tein SS i would recommend TITAN.....made in malaysia but may be customised according to your liking........
other than that, all performance oriented..... bear in mind harsh handling on uneven roads, rattling sounds (from the glove box, coin box,etc, heheheh), your badan also feel a bit jittery over long distance driving are all symtoms of a high end high performance adjustables.... but all worth it when you whack the car in n out of bends (given enough experience, sanity n skills), zigzagging between lanes, robust feel under hard braking and acceleration or combined, or any performance driving sessions....
i rest my case.....hope this helps u n others
FYI now im on tein SS
