Tein

Anyone familiar with TEIN coilovers? Opinions, info, experiences, etc. Seems like a good package for the price.

ON what car?
They kick ass on the WRX. Beat out Vishnu, STI, and stock WRX suspension assembly on the last shootout.

I don't know much about the civic, but for the Supras they are the 2nd best but still real damn good systems. I cannot speak from experience for the civic but hopefully someone will chime in with experience - I wouldn't doubt that they are good coilovers for your car.

I have had them on my integra for 2 years now and they have been great. Great adjustments for dampening and very comfortable when just regular street driving. Oh and I have the HA's which I think no longer are available in the USA.

Correct me if I'm wrong. You have the TEIN coilover kit w\dampening control on your Integra and you have had no problems.

How easy is it to lower/raise precisely?

No problems at all with the kit and yea my kit is 16 way adjustable for dampening. To lower/raise the car you have to take of the wheel but its pretty simple. And to get each side the same height wasnt all that dificult it did take a little time but its worth it. On my car it only lowers it a max of 3 inches but thats more than enough and i only lowered my car 2 inches but its really low.
