Pittsburgh roads are going to be the death of my car

Literally. With my H&R Coilovers these roads (which are terrible!) are literally going to rip the car apart.

Which means I have some work to do as I would prefer this not happen.

I'm going to try and raise the suspension and see if that alleviates some of the problem but I doubt its going to do enough (but who knows, its pretty slammed right now).

If that does not work then I'm going back to a non-coilover setup.

What do you guys think of the Tokico D-Spec struts? Make a good combination with H&R sport springs?

After doing some reading it would seem I can switch out the spring on my coilovers as they use a 2.5" ID spring over the bilstein strut. This may be the way to go, with just a softer spring rate.

If you go to a strut setup, you have a buyer for your coilovers. :)

Sounds good! They're for a GC so they bolt up just fine with no mods.

Nice! Already cross drilled for GD struts as well.. Haha. I had STi struts and Tein springs for a bit, they rode great. Struts/springs are way easier on your car, haha.
