you are always going to get a rough ride , but worse with std shocks, and more bumpy, even if u can life with that the std shocks will nacker up quickly becasue they cant cope,
just buy some gmax gas shockers from larkspeed.com i have them wiht 17s and gmaz - 40 rear and fk - 40 front springs and its really good to drive :)
although i want -50 all round now :) anyione want to swap ^ springs for-50 front / rear?

Its ok as a temporary measure but ride quality will be shite!! Mines down 60mm on standard shocks and handles like a sack of shit :( Its fine on a flat road but slight bumps feel like mountains :(

As above ppl its only on the short term few months till the cash comes in for some adjustables but will it be ok on the sri dampers as there stiffer than the norm corsa ones ??

Thanks for any help advice
