A little over 2 years ago I lowered my ride with Koni STR.T Shocks & Struts, and SR Performance Lowering Springs. The ride was flat and controlled in the corners, but the ride was firmer than I expected, but felt that I could live with it. Fast forward to today, 8,800 miles later and the ride, especially their rear end, is more than a kidney puncher, it’s brutal. Any small bump in the parking lot or any rough road is just harsh. It feel as if there is no spring or shocks in the rear. I believe I should have paid for better shocks and springs and am now paying for it the hard way.
Anyway, moving right along, I’m going to change out the lowering springs and shocks & struts and I’m looking at Steeda’s ultra-lite lowering springs and their pro-action shocks & struts. The car was originally lowered 1.25 all around and this Steeda setup will be the same drop and cost $675. The other upgraded and installed suspension components are listed in my signature.
Does anyone have this Steeda spring and shock setup or any suggestions of a similar setup that has the same drop, but has a decent overall ride? I can’t handle this hard kidney punching ride and I need some honest real world advise. I’m taking my ride to the shop that originally installed everything, concerning the suspension, to get it up on a lift to see if any damage has occurred. Any real advise would be most appreciated.
Thank you all in advance.
