which is better? im really new to this so im not sure. ive had my car for about 6 months now and i finally have the money to afford my first mod. my plan is to drop car enough to cover the space between the tire and fender. so i was wondering which Tein's should i use? or do i even need coilovers, could i just use drop springs?

thanks for the feedback

 

Drop springs would be cheaper, but you'll get a better ride with either springs+struts or coilovers.

The Super Streets have adjustable dampers so you can change the ride from super stiff to cushier. The Basics don't have that adjustability.

Do you have wheels currently? Or are you on steelies still?
There's a lot of different options out there, you wanna make sure you have the best combo for your needs.

I'm on Goldline springs right now (2" drop)
But I'll likely get Basics at some point.

 

right now i still have my hub caps, but i'm planning to get me red 501 sportmaxs. if i were to get me the basic would my ride be a lot better? meaning would it feel like stock? one my big concerns is if i drop my car, the ride will be really bad. since this is a dail driven car i want to ride to be really smooth..any help on this?

thanks for the feedback burstabeurysm

 

you can get ksports coilovers with 36 way adjustable dampening, height adjustable without sacrificing shock travel and custom spring rates. Set dampening to softest, and choose a spring rate that's not too much stiffer than stock.
Usually people lower their ride for performance, but with ksports setup like that, you can be low and comfortable but will not corner well.

 

do you have ksports on your xb?

 

no i have tein basics on my xA But my friend has ksports on his xb2
