Rough Ride In Nyc On Maxspeed's

i just changed my stock suspension with kyb gr2's and maxspeed springs. the back sags alittle bit and the front still looks like the 4x4 look. when i first got it done by jeff at maxtuning the ride was nice but after about 3 weeks it just got really bouncy. does anyone know of a better set up? im thinking its my springs. also when i go over bumps i could hear a clanging noise of two metal pieces hitting together coming fromm the suspension. please help

upgrade to eibachs. the noise is it coming from the rear. if so then check the rear strut towerr and se if u have the gaskets in. ull be able to see the gasket from the rear. also check the two bolts on the strut tower. if they are the least bit loose ull hear a pop noise every time u hit a bump. good luck

I had the clunking sound from the passenger rear because it wasn't seated properly. After it was seated properly, the noise went away

One (or more) of your shocks might have gone bad. Check for leaks.

Also, everyone has to remember, lowered suspensions will NEVER be as smooth as OEM. It will always be a harsher ride.
