Default tein basic vs. tein ss

I'm looking at suspension upgrade on a budget. If I went with Tein, would I be kicking myself later for not getting the super street model (with the shock dampening settings). Is the basic model good enough for a guy who's not planning to race the car at the track? Or is the ss worth the extra $300?

Thanks.

Default Be careful some are fake

Just get koni coilovers
If your budget is <$900, then you shouldn't be looking at coilovers
Get a shock/spring set up<ul><li><a href="http://www.tein.com/counterfeit/warning.html">http://www.tein.com/counterfeit/warning.html</a</li></ul>
