Default Silvers Neomax Coilovers

I was just wondering if anyone has experience with the Silvers Neomax coilovers. I was in the process of purchasing a set of Tein Mono Sports, and the vendor is highly recommending the Silvers over Tein. He says they are better and cheaper. Plus, they are serviceable here in the US. Any opinions one way or the other? Also, for those who have the Mono Sports, how do you like them? Are they good on the track and touge?

I'm swapping out my Teins for BC racing true coils. Mainly cause you can't rebuild Teins without shipping it to them and adjusting the rear divorced spring is fricking hard as hell.
I saw silvers while i was searching for new coils, but decided to go with BC

Never heard of them but just looked them up and their front to rear spring rate split is a bit surprising 14k/8k OEM style. Stock rear is 8.1 so I’m still confused how some of the coil overs are getting away with stock rear rates I think BC and fortune were both 10k/8k so still stock rear rate but closer split. I would think these would lead to more understeer especially with something like 14k/8k and I haven’t really heard any reason why the ones that are staying stock rear spec rate are choosing to do so, I would think if your doing any kind of lowering you need to bump up the rates.

I had never heard of them either. The vendor said that they can make them true rear, but the spring rates did look odd to me as well. I think I'll like the slightly more aggressive rates of the Teins.

That is one of the big downsides of going with Tein. Hopefully, by the time I need to rebuild, I can upgrade or replace them. I know a lot of people go with BC, but I know a few guys that have them locally, and their impressions of them kind of deterred me.

Silvers shares an origin with several other entry level coilovers; this particular brand is trying to get into the US market recently

They'll be fine

I bought a set of them for my wifes Juke Nismo RS and was impressed by the quality...even considered them for my 370 but my KW V3s are still going strong.

I ended up sticking with my original decision and going with the Tein Mono Sports. I got them in this past Tuesday, and I plan on installing them tomorrow. Thanks for the feedback on the Silvers. According to the vendor, he has a lot of Subaru owners that love them. So, if anyone is considering the Silvers, I would check out the Subaru forums for reviews.
