what causes me to feel like im floating?
With stock rims and tires, I felt it a little bit. Now that I added 20" rims I feel it alot. When you are driving fast (70-120) and the way the road is made with waves in the road. "not perfectly flat or smooth" What causes me to feel like I'm floating when the road lowers or raises? Is it the suspension? Is that why people get different suspensions to get rid of the floating feeling and get a stiffer ride or am I thinking wrong?

Skillfull - I'm with you....the car gets really LIGHT when you are over 90. I liken it to the feeling like the car is going to just take off from the ground any second. Anyone ever been riding a really fast horse before...maybe that starts to feel light too!
