The SS are going to be a bit stiffer than my FLEX are as the spring rates are a hair higher. The ss rates are ideally what I wanted from the flex as I find them a little too soft, particularly the front end. Many people looking for bouncy honda syndrome are disappointed, but if you like to spend any time behind the wheel on the average streets, these are a good compromise between comfort and teeth shattering. They are a little stripped down, retaining stock upper mounts rather than pillow mounts, and are overall a little less adjustable than many kits available, but if I were doing it again I'd definately rank them high on my list. More adjustible than konis adjustibles with eibach springs (IMO the best combination available for springs and dampers), with a ride quality that will be about the same as them, and similar prices.

There are better suspension setups out there, but almost none at the price of these.

I rock sawblades. Haven't found a wheel I like yet that was priced where I would pay for it. Perhaps when it comes back on the road I'll look around again.
