Thank ya kindly. I have a build thread on here as well
I used to not care about ride quality, until I had blown shocks with shitty coilover sleeves as my daily set up and got fed up with it. Once you go past a 3-4" drop, ride quality goes so bad that it's hard to find a good set up lol, so once you find a good set up you stick with it .
3-4" are good only on smooth flat pothole less roads
Depends your definition of good. I don't complain about my ride height at the drop I'm at. Only time I'm complaining is on those roads that oscillate back and forth as if it was made on purpose that it's wavy or there are bumps periodically. Those are the only roads I really complain about and hate. Everything else is fine to me, part of the low life.
well typically for us is not so great since at that ride height the strut doesn't have a lot of travel to dampen. now if you was to tip the top a lot more inboard you can still have the same ride height with increase in comfort since the new angle allows more piston travel to dampen better
Well there are multiple fixes for this. Extended top hats, shortened forks, and shock towers cut so camber kit doesn't slam into it. I mean you'll never be satisfied if you expect a 4" drop to ride like stock, or even like a 2" drop lol.
yea but another alternative would be getting air suspension
Not all that expensive actually, I just hate bags so I'd never buy em lol, static for life.
Once you go bags you will never want a static vehicle ever again.
I believe that in order to be low you need to be static. Bags (in my opinion) seem like they are only for 'show' cars and not for the daily driver. To me, being low means being static and having to deal with everyday struggles of what roads to choose, broke exhausts, etc. Of course there is a very small minority of people who think like I do, and are mostly related to Japanese VIP style cars.
Now let the bagged people begin arguing with me lololol.
there was a video on youtube that i saw that air suspension performed better at the track than its counterpart.
Just cuz you have never owned a bagged vehicle. It's something that can't be explained
Not at all actually. In all honesty I don't think being low and being able to adjust your ride height with one button should go together. Whether it's bags, hydraulics, whatever. Like I said bash me all you want, the VIP movement it's a small one, but some of us are still involved in it.
That's my last post for the bags vs static talk on here since this is someone's build thread.
s**t man, I don't mind. Post about whatever you want on here, I appreciate the concern tho
