Which coilover? Both great prices! - Toyota Yaris Forums

nobodywise · 10-11-2014, 01:27 AM

Hey all,

I found both the

Tein Street Basis Coilovers (4k front / 3.1k rear)
No damping adjustment

MSRP is $900 but $812.25 (after discount)

And

Tein Street Advance Coilovers (4k front / 3.1k rear
16-way Damping adjustment
MSRP is $1150 but it's $966.00 (after discount)

Those are some great prices but is it worth paying the extra money for the damping adjustment capabilities or just stick with the basis?
Note: Gonna be lowering on the teins close to, if not, the max
Looking forward to hearing from you guys
-Alex

its all depends what do you use for. if you chose the advance, you have to tune it right. the tein basic no needs to tune much. all you have to do adjust it right. spending some extra money not useful is waste.

I'm gonna be lowering the car basically to the max on the Teins

I love the back of my car, the front... not so much

Then you'd be willing to pay and do what you can to resolve or treat lowness related problems. One help could be stiffened damping.

Great points and just realized it's only about a $150 difference

If you plan on taking advantage of the adjustment is track use you should get the adjustable. If you don't want to spend lots of time tuning for a ride quality you won't be able to feel on the road get the not adjustable. It takes a lot of time and effort to tune adjustable socks

The Street Advance due to the fact that I am a perfectionist so being able to adjust my ride will help a lot
