The ride is Phenomenom... Best ride ever, for those who say the df210's are really bouncy n stiff, thats due to road conditions, define me your definition of smooth and bouncy ride... Tanabe Df210's are made with a special amount of spring rate ratios which are:
Spring Drops: Front: 2.2 Inch Rear: 2.1 Inch
Spring Rates: Front: 2.8 kg/mm Rear: 3.0 kg/mm
<img src=http://img8.photobucket.com/albums/v28/swtbabiboi4u/xangur/tanabe.jpg>
With the springs on my car right now, the ride is not bouncy, its a really smooth ride, it Hugs and hugs the road perfect. right now im just holding off on my Shocks due to the factory shocks are still new and good for another 16 months.

Tokico Blues/Whites are a good recomendation along with Cusco under frame brace along with a Tower brace any brand will due. ur own preferance. As for alignment its perfect no alignment required for Tanabe DF210 had them checkd out already. Camber position is perfect no kit required unless under heavy loads on a regular basis. PM or IM me for any questions on my suspensions.

-Mark :D
P.S. Good Luck with ur suspensions

Go here, Options Auto. I have had mine for about 2k miles. I have no complaints. They come with replacement bump stops. Randode Racing http://www.randode.com/ installed mine in about 30 minutes.
http://www.optauto.com/webstore/prod...3677&last=3677 I just checked and they are in stock at $156.00. They ship fast too.
Heres mine http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4287936257&jdx=10[/img]
