Hows the ride on the GR+ for our local roads? Or would you suggest the LX's? Thanks

From what Mike told me at Touge Factory, Stance LX+ is the luxury in coilovers if you are looking for coilovers with the most comfort at 2" and beyond drops. It's already been proven by the 350z and G35 guys. For the GR+, they are a little bit stiffer than the LX+ but gives it better handling at the track when compared to the LX+. If you are a street/daily driver and wouldn't mind taking the car to the track 2-3 times a year, get the LX+. If you plan to hit the track more than 5 times a year and a very aggressive driver, you can live with the GR+. Both models can handle the Chicago sized potholes that we call canyons. Personally, I been in Touge Factory's shop Evo X that is equipped with GT+ 3-Way with external reservoir and 12 or 14k rated springs and they felt like stock suspension when going over bumps. It's all about the valving and adjustment that made those coilovers feel smooth over the bumps.

I love the ride of the GR+, and trust me, the roads are worse down here than they are up there. I have the 10k rates and could not be any happier. 100 times better than the Megans I have on my RSX.
