Bouncy ride....
Hey, I don't have alot done to my suspension. Right now all that's on my civic, suspension-wise is the Eibach Prokit. I also got some 17's as well but I was wondering what's gonna be the best way to smooth out my ride...
Any parts/tips would be appreciated.

After lowering my car,,,I had a lot of bounce in the back when going over uneven pavement(contruction,railroad tracks)......After putting my Koni Yellows on,,I have no bounce in the back.........It feels better than when it came out of the dealership.......The bumps don't seem as harsh anymore and its smooth as Hell on the Freeway.....[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] .....If your interested Check out Rob at TORNACTIVE , they are the 1-stop-shop for us 7thgencivics.....

Cut your bumpstops you will have a less bouncy ride. If you want a tight ride you wil have to get aftermarket struts or coilover.

The Koni's or other aftermarket shocks is a must for our cars since the rear end is bouncy even without lowering springs.

Drops with more than 2" should get a camber kit. Replacing the shocks is not required and probably be ok for awhile but it will be bouncy. I guess you can wait until the shocks blown before replacing them. Alignment is a most after any drop and make sure they balance your tires correctly.

i have neuspeed sports and got no camber kit, shocks or alignment... as of now, dont plan on getting anything... when my shocks blow, i will get new shocks, when my car starts going left/right on its own i will get an alignment, after seeing the alignment specs of one person i decided not to get a camber kit
