    Any NYC resident with COILOVa?

    I'm about to get either KW V3 or PSS9, but one thing that holds my back is the road condition in NYC.
    I usually go out to Manhattan during weekends, but those road conditions are just insane!! Whenever I drive over those bumps I see those boobs in my passenger seat go up and down real crazy with unequal circular motion even with my sport suspension.
    I just wanna know how people dealing with this issue with their coilover..

    did you know the V3 could send you to the roof? the ride quality on rough road is not good at all but it's superb for auto X.
    get the PSS9 and set the each damping setting to the softest. I am requesting a GB on that now

    I have Vogtland GT's with 19 in wheels and it does get annoying at times. Every small bump is magnified compared to when I had my stock suspension. Once you get to the twisties(i.e. Jackie Robinson Parkway) though, you'll forget all about the discomfort.

    Like Maverick said get a milder pair with adjustable dampening and you should be good... I have the Stassis SS with an average ride height of 25.5, a little lower than sport and drive on some crappy roads in B-more with no issues and good ride quaility.. only rubbed once
    Goodwood Green is money...$$$$
