Intrax/KYB has a GOOD ride!
i have posted before on this topic because I am running the intrax 1.75" springs and KYB GR-2 struts. Previously I stated that on the highway they where good, but around town they rode rough. I was wrong, it was the 20" wheels and tires that was giving this effect. I took my 20s off to sell them last wknd, and I just got finished driving around for the first time this wk, and the car rides GREAT.
I know that 255/35-20 down to 215/60-16 is a BIG change, but the car rides like it has a factory sport suspension, there is hardly any impact harshness over some big potholes, and stuff in the car does not rattle as much.
If any of you are thinking about running this suspension set up with some 40 series 18s or 19s I think you will be happy with the overall result, good cornering and a decent ride!!
BTW-my car is soooo much faster without the 20s!!! Damn I feel like I can take a Modena now! LOL

sorry...
sorry D, but i'm going to have to jack your thread for a bit . if anyone is interested, i'll be putting up my eibach/kyb gr-2 setup for sale as soon as i get some free time to take them out. i figure i'd give you guys a crack at it before i put it up for sale on ebay or something. i've had it for a about year (10,000 miles) and was looking for something like $300 for everything. If you have any questions or are interested, shoot me a PM, that way it'll give me incentive to go and take them out of my car .
btw, the drop on eibachs are 1.25" and the drop on intrax springs are 1.75"
