TANABE SUSTEC PRO S-OC or STANCE GR+?

i'm thinking to lower my G37S with coils but i don't know which one to choose. I know a lot of people gonna say KW V3 but it's expensive and overkill for DD. So i came up with these 2 coils below

TANABE SUSTEC PRO S-OC

or

Stance GR+

Stance GR+ is more expensive than Tanabe SUSTEC PRO S-OC. I saw a lot of good reviews about Tanabe SUSTEC PRO S-OC but so little info about Stance GR+. i'm looking for better than stock quality ride for DD. Feel Free to vote above also.

Thanks

Stance got my vote!

It comes with pillowball upper mount f+r
15 ways compression settings
Easy ride height adjustment.

The only thing tanabe has is ride height adjustments.

I agree with you Wei, but adjusting dampers for daily drive car and not using it for track is simply useless and will run the stock ride quality,

While tanabe is "stiffer" than stock and the ride is "better" than stock.. you cant beat that..

thats why I voted for Tanabe. If the OP wanted it for track then its a different story.

adjusting dampening is not useless, although it is not needed. just allows more customizability in your ride, don't have to track to need this. and it can also help if you're slamming it and need a real stiff ride. depends on the person.

i think i might go with Tanabe because a lot of people say the ride is better than stock and that's what i'm looking for. Plus it's cheaper than Stance GR+

I vote for tanabe, the price/quality of the product it's top notch. Also the ride it's more comfortable than stock. I have tanabe for my DD works fine if I have the money I would do KW3 without a doubt. So to the op it really comes to about how much are you willing to drop.

I voted tanabe as well don't have them but hear good things about them and I'm strongly thinking about getting them cause I'm looking for another car that will see the track and the G never will so all the other adjustments other coils offer I don't need.

I love my stance coilovers. Great setup.

OP needs to put in the time to do the necessary research to see what will actually work better for him...

I say stance gr, seems pointless to pay for coilovers and get no dampening settings.... And dampening is usefull for those who want to go stanced and don't want to rub, not just track use.
