In Reply To	The total shock travel doesn't 100% define the ride quality posted by LitlElvis on July 12, 2010 at 08:56 PM
Message	was the defining aspect of ride comfort/quality. Also if i had to pick "bouncy" I would say eibachs + stock shocks on the sport setting is bouncy...annoyingly bouncy. The damn car would get caught in an almost rythmic perpetual state of bouncing up and down during freeway travel, and not the slow loping kind, higher frequency sharper jostling. Eibachs + oem is not a combo worth the effort of installation. "The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of "liberalism", they will adopt every principle of our socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without ever knowing how it happened.... I no longer need to run on the Socialist Party ticket because the Democrat Party has now adopted our platform." --Norman Thomas, 1944 Socialist Party Presidential Candidate "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." --Winston Churchill
