RSR Super Downs. Love the look but the ride is pretty harsh. Thinking about going with the Downs or Tanabe's

Intresting, this is what I was worried of. Some said there was no change to ride, and I was skeptical with these. Are you on fsport or base awd? I want to be lowered but I do NOT want much of a ride quality change, been there done that with other cars where it was so rough.

^ Looks like a F sport to me from the badges and front bumber.

AWD on RS*R Down springs. Feels only a tiny bit harsher than when stock. Absolutely love the stance and think this is how the car should have came from the factory.

i was first lowered on swift, and it wasn't low enough for me so I lowered it again on super downs. The swift rode really nice comparable to stock and the super downs are a little rougher, but on smooth roads I like them more than the swift. I live in a place where the roads are pretty nice, so the super downs are better than swift for the drops for me

Definitely! I'm sure the roads have everything to with it. I wish Colorado roads were like California. All of our roads are trash

you need to go full coilovers - take advantage of good roads. When I switched from super downs to coilovers ; it was a night and day difference. Car stayed flat in corners - body roll was minimal.

I love the ride quality with these oem struts and springs. I had many types of coilovers in previous cars and I hated the ride quality. I was looking into getting the J5 coilovers, but from previous experience, the ride is going to suffer compared to stock with the super downs.
