I finally got my wheel alignment done today and did some hard cornering to test the Buddy Club coilovers. All I can say is WOW!! Hats off to Buddy Club! These are the Shizz!! With my set up, the car handles like a gokart. I have the Buddy Club racing specs set to 6 clicks and the ride quality for daily driving is still good. I am running 17x9 RPF1 +35 wrapped in Dunlop Direzzas Z1 Star Spec 245/45/17. The only con I can think of about the Buddy Club Racing Spec is the height adjustment. Right now I am running on the lowest height and it is only about a full inch drop. I would like to run at least a quarter of an inch lower. Here is a crappy picture I took on my phone.

Correct! In the city I live in, the streets are smoother so I can ride on a stiffer setting but where I work, the streets are crap so I just leave them on a softer setting for a more comfortable ride. On the weekends I turn up the stiffness so I can enjoy the way the car performs with the Buddy Clubs.

good reviews and info in here. I got the RSDs for my civic and height adjustment was always a problem for me when I wanted to go lower... but then again the RSD are more function > form. Might just get these again for the FRS.

Hey @mark_Slide_Squad, is that really only an inch lower than stock? It looks like a lot more than that
