tein ss or basic damper

what is the difference between the two, i know that the basic damper doesnt allow u to set the dampening, what does this mean? how much the springs compress? also how low does the basic damper go compared to the ss. does the ss handle sooo much better than the basic damper, thanks for all of your responses

ya your right. basically only difference is the damper adjustment you have with the ss. basically you get to control the ride. if you want a more "luxury" feeling just put it on soft. if you want a "race/stiff" type suspension just make it stiffer. also the settings for the front vs rear makes a difference in handling. i have heard once you have damper adjustment you always need it...
the tein ss and basic i beleive uses the same springs so the drop is going to be the same(you can always order custom springs for them).
