When I was on stock struts with my Sportlines it was close to stock on smooth roads but bouncy and harsh on the rough stuff. Konis and H rated tires(Kumho 711's 205/40/17) helped alot with comfort and bounce control.

Just get a set of Konis and put it on the top perch setting in the back. Then the rear won't be lower.

Yeah i agree with Floatsamm, just as good as as stock on smooth roads but bumpier than stock on rough roads, but what do you expect thats the price you gotta pay for lowering with out upgrading the shocks too.

my car never bounced with my oem struts and sportlines. Maybe your struts are allready blown or very close to it.
