Tien ss

im about to get the tien ss. i was wondering if anyone has any opinions on these. if they are really worth getting or just the HFP suspension kit.

I heard they make a fair amount of noise at times, specifically when they are cold?

can somebody still agree with that?

Havent really heard any major noises but to my understanding most coilovers on the market make alittle noise.

I had the ss for a year. Worst purchase of my life. The don't ride as well or hanlde as well as stock. Personally, I don't think any coilover set up on the market right now is worth it (I have tein flex right now). If you want a fun daily driver, get the HFP.
