Well I know this is a Civic Forum and I don't own one but I will get your opinion anyways

Need advice from the suspension experts.

I just recently bought a 2001 S2000. It came with Tein Flex Coilovers and EDFC.

On the crappy northern potholed and patched roads we have here in Nova Scotia canada it rides awful. I have tried different settings on the edfc but it makes little difference.

I was provided with stock suspension. I did some research and the stock spring rates are half what the tein ones are. If i put the stock suspension back will the car ride better?

Obviously I will loose handling but I am not going to be using it as a track car I just want a car that is fun to drive and not punishing.

Yes, if you put the stock shocks on the ride will be much less harsh :thumbs up

The flex is horrible in those conditions. You are better putting on the stock suspension with some H&R sports or Eibach Sportlines.

Or you can sell your tein flex and get another coilover system that will give you the ride your looking for.
