The ride qualities not as bad as you would think.I've got MM sport bilsteins with it so that's probably why.If you matched them with some cheapo KYBs or something I'm pretty sure the ride would be terrible.Its not a rough ride but you can tell the car has been lowered..its not like you hit a bump and it feels like you ran over a brick or something. Its just a little less suspension movement.One thing I have noticed is if you are driving over a stretch of road that has a lot of consecutive bumps for example if your going over the interstate fast and you start hitting the expansion joints like one after another after another the car starts to feel bouncy.But I think the effect is amplified to me through my LX standard seats which are very springy in the bottom seat.No one who has rode in the car has complained. It takes corners awesome,I haven't gotten a chance to really test them out as I don't like to play too hard on the streets.But the harder you throw the car into a turn you can definitely feel the added spring rates over stock.I'm sure it rides about the same as any other 16 year old car with aftermarket suspension haha lotsa rattles and noises.thank god for loud exhaust Thanks for the interest guys!

Very nice. I was thinking about getting a set for my car when I do the suspension but I was wondering how much drop there would be and what the ride quality would be like. I autocross at least once a month and my stock springs allow for way too much body roll. Are you having any rubbing issues with the ROH wheels? What size tires do you have on them?

Yea the ROHs don't rub.The fronts are 17x 8.5 with 235/45/17s and the rears are 17x9.5 with 255/45/17s.They are odd tire sizes but thats what was on them when I bought em.When they wear out ill probably go to a 245 in the front and 275 in the rear.On your sn95 you shouldn't rub at all.If my car wasn't an SSP and I could go mod crazy and not feel guilty. I'd probly just save alittle more money and buy coilovers.Then you could adjust the height however you like and get the added ability to fine tune the suspension at every corner.
