TEIN said all coil-overs systems do have a protective coating, even the Basic and SS. They implemented this recently I believe.

I'm still debating. I just don't know exactly what to get. Basic, SS and now KW are in the book. I sorta dont want TEINS cuz they don't go as low as i want them to. I really dont want KW because I've never heard of them and i really dont know if they are trustworthy.

If yall had $1500 would you go with the SS, Basic, or Hayame. Im iffy about the Hayame cuz they are sort of like a noob company. The only reason i would get the Hayame is because they drop more that 1.3". While the Tein only goes 1.3" is what they quote in the catalog. But Teins are trustworty. What would yall do?

if anyone would like to see how the basics look installed. goto my ride. it's dropped all the way in front. back i forgot plus i raised it up a lil recently. the back has a pretty bad camber which i need to check out soon. i'm not even sure if they came out w/rear camber kits for our cars. gotta do some searching. but the ride is awesome.

btw if you want ur front lower, u can do what my friend did (he has ss) and use rsx spring ratios
