[QUOTE="scin, post: 100931, member: 1541"] Yo Kenny, I am using the stock suspension on my Ci now.. quite happy with the comfort levels.I don't find it harsh at all.... BUT another man's meat is another man's poison. My only upgrade would be to change my Sway bars to something better as I am not happy with the body roll during hard cornering. I am on 17inch Mtech 68's, on Goodyear F1 GS-D3 with Nitrogen at 2.2 front and 2.4 rear. The pressures you are running on may affect the harshness of your ride as well.. At this point I am unwilling to lower it further or put in sports shocks for fear of sacrificing the comfort levels. So, if you are already unhappy with the ride comfort on a stock setup, changing any of those components will be detrimental to that, for sure....... Generally, IMHO.... comfort cannot be obtained without sacrificing better handling and vice versa........ The objective is to determine what levels of either characteristic you are willing to give up for the other??? Please give us a detailed review once you have installed the desired option. I would be most interested to hear the results! [/QUOTE]
