I run 90/10's in the front and 50/50 in the rear, they are all lakewood drag shocks and 175 lbs coil overs up front and the ride quality is amazingly good

mjr is that for your street car? how does it handle small bumps and potholes that you dont miss. my stock slams hard in the rear when i hit a bump and its very annoying. not to mention all the things that i can imagine banging around and possible breaking/coming loose.
