Message: <blockquote data-quote="bimmerman" data-source="post: 58696" data-attributes="member: 126">Was carrying 3 big blokes in my car today and the ride seemed a lot better than usual. Fully laden with passengers and luggage it does not seem to go much lower and a bit of the magic carpet ride returns. When I'm driving alone, it stiffens up and becomes a sports car. Hey! I can live with that! A dual personality car that transforms itself according to load. Come to think of it, it's not so bad after all considering the car just refuses to roll, pitch or dive when I take the car sideways at the Jalan Duta skidpad. Not even with a heavy load! It just feels very fidgity when I encounter mid-corner bumps and uneven patches when unladen. Maybe the trade off in ride quality is worth it huh? I mean the car just handles amazingly!!! Feels like i'm in supercar territory minus give and take 400bhp.Just that the longivity of my Boge shocks will be questionable with these springs as they work extra hard to dampen the extra rebound forces. But then I could switch to Bilstein regulars instead of the HD when they kaput right? I'm going to try the Pirelli Dragons first since they can still be found at RM420 a piece somewhere in Shah Alam and see if the ride improves further. If it does then I think I can live with the ride quality with 4 on board. Just that I have to really slow down at speed bumps and parking ramps which I still find irritating.  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
