The Teins are perfect for what I was looking for! Height adjustable and still has a stock-like feel / a lot of ride comfort

Just be sure to keep the threads clean and lubricated. Winters will cause the aluminum adjustment nuts to seize on the steel threads. Ask me how I know...

I thought that the Teins were coated to prevent seizing? What d'you suggest tim, maybe some anti-seize on the threads?

The Basics aren't. IIRC, only the Flex for the TSX's are teflon coated. Actually, let me rephrase that. I've only heard of the TSX Flex lineup being teflon coated. I don't know about the rest of Tein's lineup.

Damn. My thread section is zinc coated - just looked it up on Tein's site. So weekly car washes and anti-seize it is...lol

Ha, I actually just read a lot of folks on different forums duct tape their threads after anti-seizing it. No sticky residue from the tape b/c it comes off with the anti-seize in the Spring and leaves the threads looking brand new. Might have to utilize the ol' duct tape!
