what I'm trying to get at is there a difference in feeling from the tein or cusco being lowered compared to a fully adjustable coilover like the bc with a low dampening setting? I know the ride quality will be worse but I'm trying to avoid the car bouncing in the air if I hit a pothole.

No. Cuscos, BCs, Megans, K sports Silk etc. are all still very stiff (relative to stock dampening) at the softest setting.

If you have to ask how stiff they are.. they will probably be too stiff for you.

The Tien basics that are only height adjustable are softer, and ride like performance struts.
