SS's should treat you fine, especially if you aren't pushing your car around corners a lot (which would be stupid to do so on the streets, too much at risk)
#1- Least expensive of the three.
#2- Brand new > used.
#3- Spring rates aren't as harsh as HA. (Dunno what Flex is).
#4- EDFC, IMO, is a waste of money. I would just have your SS damper set higher than most if you drive hard on the street.

If you're going to include those then you should include the Buddy Club Racing Spec Dampers as well.
Although for what he wants I think all 3 are overkill.
its prob just me but theres no such thing as overkill except maybe tube chassis. but honestly i think hed enjoy any of those 3. he always says he wants reliable, comfort and price but i talked him into doing a full turbo build. jacky...all performance. might as well go all out after u put all that $ into ur lude.

the zeals maybe, though i don't believe the spring rates on those. it has to be a typo or something. but JIC? the flta-2 are 10kg F/7kg R vs. Flex 10kg F/6kg R. that's not bad at all
EDIT: oops i got the spring rates wrong fixed

I think he's playing on the fact that the starter of the thread said the highway was his track.
I'm guessing this means street racing? Not entirely sure.
I don't think he needs anything higher than the Tein SS.

he might as well just get some shocks and springs then. there's really no point in getting coilovers. i doubt he'll be doing any hard cornering on the streets. -=shrugs=-
oh and um, the JIC's retail for more like $1880. the best price i've seen is $1600 out the door
about the zeals...they're considerably more. over $2200 retail for the function s6. also the spring rates on both the circuit and street coilovers are pretty damn high. circuit: 18kg F/14kg R. street: 16kg F/12kg R. it has to be a typo or something cuz their coilovers for other honda cars don't have spring rates anywhere near those. or atleast that's what i believe
