Default cusco coilovers

Iam thinking of fitting cusco coilovers to my Sti v4,somebody has told me that they are too hard and they are for tracks.
Has anybody got these on their cars for everyday driving.I believe they are Zero 2s.
If i have them fitted will the ride be too choppy and bouncy.
Is there a big difference from normal sti suspension and them.
Also wil i have to have the car aligned.
Many thanks in advance.

It mostly depends on the spring rates. Write to Bren at Apex performance and he will tell you - bren@apexperformance.co.uk . Why Cusco in particular? If you get overly hard suspension, unless you are building a track car, you will hate your car and everyone who rides with you will hate you.... I have BC's with springs about the stock rate (5/4) and am very happy with them. Anything else would be very harsh.
