South Florida---I want a test drive!!!
Hey guys, got a set of Bilsteins on the shelf and before I go matching them up with some GC's I wanted to see if these were as harsh as what people make them out to be...So if anyone is willing to, I'd like to test yours out...could be a simple ride along, just something to get a gauge for what level "harsh" they are...
Anyone in South FL running Bilstein's? Preferably with stiffer springs, but stock would be fine as well.. TIA |
I'll be in jax until the 24th with my GC 700/325 on Bilsteins, but that's not exactly south FL.

Yea appreciate the offer, but I'm in Miami...
Send me a PM with your best honest description of ur ride harshness, if u can... |
I vacationed in Florida once it's a nice place.

The car has zero roll (Eibach sways too) and now that the FCM tops and stops are in I rarely ever hit the bumpstops. Other people think it's too harsh, but they drive SUVs and minivans and Cadillacs so of course they think it's harsh.. |

If I end up just going for it, and they turn out fine, I'm gonna start another thread ranting bout everyone's a pussy.. If it goes the other way, I'll start a for sale thread bout how I'm an idiot.. |
Koto, I just thought of a BIG thing you can help me with....
Can you tell me how far past the retaining clip (forget what correct name is) the GC sleeves go? This would be a big...might have another question or two depending on the answer |
