What a difference!! I had the GLE Suspension with over 70,000 miles on it. I guess I had gotten used to it, but when I put on the H&R's and Tokicos, the ride was awesome! It is definitely a bit more bumpy, but nothing I can't get used to. The turns are so much more crisp and accurate, I can't wait to find some really curvy roads to really test it out. The installer said the stock shocks were just about dead.

So far everything feels like it was installed correctly. Anything I should look out for that would suggest otherwise? I've noticed the car kinda "follows" hills and slopes...it kinda rolls with the curvature, as if it was on tracks. I'll have to get used to this, but HELL the handling is well worth it! Oh, and MY CAR IS NO LONGER A 4X4!!!!! It's low enough to look sporty, but not "Civic with the cut coils" low.

Where did you get the work done and how much did the labor cost? My Max is at 55k and aching for the suspension upgrade...

Sorry, I don't have a digicam, but I'll have some pics in about a week. The labor was $150.
