It's good, I'm a little hesitate about lowering anymore because of the vibrations I get in D while stopped. I don't feel any wobbles on acceleration others are experiencing.. AWD sucks

I'm on 225 40 18. I am rubbing on pot holes. I want to get some 215 35 18s. Not sure tho...
I have a question for all air suspension gurus... I am picking up a set of Megan LPs with air bags on them. I've heard this combination isn't great. They've been described as "floaty". Can anyone shine some light for me?
