Coilovers Tein flex z or Meister R?

[Rob82]

Hi guys, I'm torn between the Tein flex z and Meister R coilovers, found some decent reviews for the Teins, not much about the Meister's. I know everyone raves about the Ohlins but I can't justify £2k on suspension for a car I do 500 miles a year in tops. Torque GT have both set s on sale at the moment. It'll only ever be a road car, not interested in slamming it or tracking it etc. I want something that I can drop it a little, maybe 20mm but not have an horrendous ride that'll rattle my teeth out. Has anyone tried both or either?
Cheers

i went with Tein, was pretty happy with them, then last year added the active controller, transformed the ride and handling, much flatter through corners, much less pitch and squat under braking or acceleration, really happy with the setup. Gives you nice compliant ride, firm, but not hard, then stiffens up when you go faster through corners etc, but heh, you can set it to start off as hard or soft as you like. I bought direct from Tein UK

Have had both and would recommend Meister R all day long. Much nicer ride quality. Teins are very crashy in comparison, although i was perfectly happy with them at the time.

Thanks for the advice guys.

Meister from me, performed great on road and track and with good aftersales support.
