Well if we can get the other 2 guys to go with us we'd have 4 total. My buddy with the Mazdaspeed 3 might wanna go since he's never been out there before. I've made it all the way to about 25 miles outside of Springfield. I wanna make it to Missouri atleast, but that would be a long trip, actually would need 2 days for all that

To me yes the springs feel like stock, on a really smooth road, it rides better than stock, on small-big bumps, yes it is a bit more bumpy, but not enough where anyone felt to comment this past weekend (had 3 friends in the car that rode in it stock and dropped) and im driving everyday on chicago streets and half assed road construction highways and i can say that its no biggie, i dont think the drop is enough, with a more agressive drop like the sportlines or df210, i can deff see it being jarringly bumpy haha, but im also only 21

my bottom line is:
for a small/noticable drop = springs
agressive drop with options for fitment = coilovers

wheels are:
Drag DR-23
16x7 +40
Wrapped in the stock 180 tires

NO RUBBING
