More preload wil mean a stiffer ride, just like it sounds. It is preloaded, compressing the spring when the car is at rest. If you picture a loose spring held between your hands, push your hands together "preloading" the spring, it's stiffer right?
Hope this helps.

You guys are confusing me....
My car is super bouncy and it's on the absolute softest setting right now so I know I must have messed up somewhere since when I hit potholes or any road bumps I feel like the whole car DROPS into the bump and hits so hard.
So assuming my car is bouncy with the harsh ride due to too much pre-load, I have to make my spring "looser" between the first to collars and then use my bottom collar to re-adjust the ride height?

Don't mean to bring up an old thread, but I had similar issues with my buddyclubs. Turns out adjusting the preload a little can make a huge difference and it's probably better to get your suspension tuned at a shop that knows what they're doing. My preload on the left side of the car was stiffer than the right side when I first got them since I got them used and the car behaved just fine. I decided to adjust the passenger side preload to make it even with the drivers side and after doing so, it felt like I was driving some sort of mexican truck because the car literally just bounced up and down the whole time, even when the road was fairly smooth.
Any explanation to this?

im thinking about buying these w/edfc for my ap2.
none of the pictures worked for me. i am interested in where the best place to mount the edfc would be.
would it fit in the front part of the coin/cup holder? and will it sit low enough to shut the sliding door?
Thanks

Tein EDFC is definitely the most hottest coilovers, I dunno why other spring makers don't do this too.
I have a question for people with Tein EDFC, can you make the settings to softer than OEM to a point where it is comfortable for highway driving on bumpy roads like 405 south in L.A.?

We'll from the stuff i have read i will be ordering my Flex's w/edfc fairly soon.
however, i dont know if i will have access to a shop to do the corner balancing. since im not going to track the car, that shouldnt be TOO much of a problem right?
