TEIN has released the FLEX Z Coilovers for the Tesla Model Y! Tein FLEX Z inherits all the features and quality of STREET FLEX but the adoption of the new platform allows its price to be set at a low range. FLEX Z, of course, maintains the long-favored "Made in Yokohama" quality. Considering the use of larger tires/wheels and the lowered ride height, FLEX Z uses a twin-tube system, in pursuit of ride comfort on streets. Also, low gas pressure keeps friction low. Its smooth stroke movement makes it possible to follow rough and bumpy road surfaces quite well, offering a supple ride at low speed and a stable ride at high speed. Full-length ride height adjustment system, used for FLEX Z, enables adjustment of ride height by adjusting the case length, without changing the damper stroke length and/or spring preload.
FLEX Z has an ever-popular 16-level damping force adjustment (comp./rebound together) feature with the use of a needle valve. By turning the adjustment knob, damping force (stiffness) is adjusted linearly step by step, to change the ride and handling of the car to suit the driver's needs/preferences.
