Generally only bumpy when riding on either shocks that don't have a high enough shock rate, or adjustable shocks that aren't turned up enough. Use Koni, AGX or Illuminas. The only shocks with a high enough dampening rate.

well, if i were to adjust the drop so that it would not be as great would that have a positive impact on the bumpiness, say if i set the drop at 1.8 instead of the full 3.0?

I have these on my car with AGX's. The ride is not that bad with these struts. I am sure if you dont put them on the lowest setting and couple them with a firm enough shock you should be okay.

There you go. I am actually going to try a new spring (Sprints) if someone wants to buy my OBX's.
