The ride's stiff...but i guess guys like me prefer it that way. Feels much more in touch with the road than the bouncy stock suspension. I wish i had splurged for the super streets cuz i know in the future im gonna wanna tweak the dampner force but the basics are THE SAME minus the ability to do that lol

yeah id be pretty f***ing pissed if i spent that much on a car and got beat by something that was half the cost and front wheel drive.

anywho, yeah the basics are great and a lot of fun, when i got em, the car just felt great doing 90mph down the freeway (in uh.. legal areas of uh... route 66, yeah thats it) i would just suggest not taking corners too hard too often, i recently just found that out the hard way by busting a lower control arm on the left side and a wheel bearing, apparently i love making hard rights, just another reason i hate nascar i suppose... congrats!!

Basics are quite the ****. Ive got them hooked up with a pair of 205.55.15 es100's. The ride is stiff but not nearly as bumpy as eibachs or tein springs. I just need to upgrade my brakes and i'll be just as happy as lancerguy.
