Default Best suspension for smooth ride

I wanted to know what the best suspension for the most luxurious ride possible. I'm not interested in racing or anything like that, I just want to feel as little as possible when going over bumps and such just like the big luxury cars..Any suggestions?

Get some coilovers such as Tein. The funny thing about coilovers is that you get what you pay for, so don't be afraid to spend some cash for some really good ones.

I searched and some people swear by those and others like the Blistein(I think that's what you call them)...how does your ride feel with them...is it really smooth?

Install thrusters, each at four corners, then you also need to convert exhaust pipe into forward thrusters too. That should get you little to no bumpy feeling. However, you need to put some thoughts into making the steering because I need a nap now.

Tein Comfort Sports will give you the best ride for what your looking for. on my dads SC430 he wanted to lower his car but not have a harsh ride and i told him to get the CS. He told me he thinks they ride alot better then his stock suspension so id put my money on the Tein CS being the best for your needs.
