Well I was just about to buy some Tien SSP's which have the adjustable dampening and camber plate on the top.. Do you think these would be a super stiff ride? I figured it could be corrected because of the dampening.

Which ones would be a nice ride? that would have the same gear the teins would?

Mopar stage 3 + mopar camber plates (even though they aren't needed unless you are hitting up the road course).

The Tein spring rates are too stiff in the rear and will make the back a bit bouncy.

Well I thought the camber plates would be nice to adjust the camber back out from where im lowering it i really hate camber wear. But anyhow I was looking for a bit better ride than what I have now but not too soft.. So you really think the tein's are a bad idea? Right now im on stock struts w/ tein S techs. If I were to go with the S3 how much would the plates cost me extra over top the 1500 that they already are?

plates are about 300 a set.

mopar/kw coilovers have more than enough camber adjustment in the clevis bolts. You can go from positive camber to about -2° with STOCK clevis bolts and the slots in the coilovers when you are lowered to the stop rings.

Default coil overs

Is it possible that some of the lower quality units have a higher spring rate to mask a lower dampening ability?
Are some of the units listed having problems that anyone has come across? Or any adjustment problems?
Even a less expensive set is still more than a small investment.

Ahh, a very good question but, please start a new thread to reveal your answer.
