Don't get TEIN. Get something with inverted monotube. Basic used to around $800-900. Why $1100????

I paid $1100 for my set of Stance GR+ Pros, brand new.

For Tein basics that deal is fail.

Any tein's under the 2000$ price range will SUCK. I know from experience. In the ~1000$ price range I like Stance the best but its up to you.Keep in mind I have tested almost all the coils in the $1000 price range.

Dmax has their inverted Monos for around $1000... SUPER beefy piston from the pic (I mean... look!)
