tein is a much more trusted company across the globe. personally i like them, but they are too common so i am not getting them. they have the best overall rated coilovers. but the ones for our cars dont come with pillowball mounts.
performance: teins comfort: teins are soft, megans i dunno. it all comes down to what u you will be using them for --------------------  1995 GT::::Diffusing the Situation エキサイティングカーレーシングチーム! march 2010 COTM : 6GC feature 2014 : january 2015-2016-2018 COTM |

im pretty sure they dont rub. that would be more the coilovers settling into the weight. thats the only noise i could assume that would come from coilovers.
all coilovers u get will be alot stiffer than the normal setup u have. all of them will feel uncomfortable, but some are softer(more comfort) than others. i suggest the teins for you. the pillow ball mounts will not add 1" to your car trust me -------------------- 1995 GT::::Diffusing the Situation エキサイティングカーレーシングチーム! march 2010 COTM : 6GC feature 2014 : january 2015-2016-2018 COTM |

Comfort depends on the person. What stiffness are you able/willing to tolerate?
performance: Don't know, as I've never ridden on tein SS coils, but I was super impressed with the megans. Comfort: Megan coils have 32 levels of adjustable damper. Teins only have 16. Megans spring rate is 10K front/8K rear Teins spring rate is unknown? -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money

Megan Coilovers are better as far as bang for the buck, and performance. The SS coilovers are Tein's mid-range coilovers.
I would go with the Megans. |
