| Im now looking to replace my TEMS suspension with some height adjustable coilovers with camber adjustment.
But if i'm going to replace my TEMS, i don't want to end up with a rough ride, after all it is my daily driver so i wan't a nice smooth ride.
Any recommendations? | |

| Ive always been a fan on tein coilovers, you can even have the EDFC (electronic damping force controller)!!!! i had tein springs in my old Corolla, the ride quality was fairly good and was a difference in handling from the springs alone!  | |

| Definitly TEIN. Super street coilover kit with EDFC and you're the man!!! Would love to have them on my car, but because of the superstrut suspension, a set would cost me over €2100  (over 3150 us dollar) | |

| Thats the problem i got with TEIN is the price. The coilovers alone cost more than my car  They are my first choise though, if not there is D2 and Megan racing. | |

| Quality of D2 and Megan is a completly different ballgame compared to TEIN. Though TEIN is pricey, better than that you won't get elsewhere. | |

Yea, the quality is definetly worth the money, just a few more weeks of saving which isn't too bad. One thing that caught my attention on the TEIN website is that for me to have the EDFC, i would need the Carlos Sainz bonnet | |

| Makes sense because the EDFC sits on top of your struts, so you acquire more space on top. The CS/RC bonnet has vents on top of the struts. But even without the EDFC, I would go with TEIN anyway. | |

| Or you can fit some spacers on the hinges of the bonnet, if you like that look. | |
