TBH I can't tell if my shocks are bottoming out and hitting the bump stops or if my tires are rubbing the wheel well. What is each one supposed to sound like? All I can tell is something isn't right because I sometimes even hear the sound going over manholes. |

It's definitely a hassle commuting through the city with a slammed car, no doubt about it. When I used to work downtown in St. Louis, I can't tell you how many times I was honked at, yelled at, flipped off etc. because I'd go slow through certain areas where I knew the manholes/big bumps were.
For the past couple years, I've been working from home as I was lucky enough to find work in my field that is all remote. No more 45 minutes to 1 hour long commute each way every day. It's been an absolute dream, and I think I've only put around 3k miles on my car in the past eight months or so. I drive my car now strictly for enjoyment, every trip is a joy whereas back in the day, the long slog to/from work was such a drag. If you can ever find a way to work remote, I highly suggest it. My quality of life has increased dramatically and I'm a faaaar happier person. |

Hey Twix, Just spitballing here but maybe swap out the Eibachs for some M springs? I have Bilstein sports with stock M springs and I'm not bottoming out. Even over the newly ripped up road leading up to Logan (although the line of angry cars behind me weren't crazy about my slow pace). My car handles much better with the Bilsteins though and I'm guessing the KONIs are as good.
Here's a set for sale somewhat close: http://www.zpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1190159 |

Twixboy I might get a similar setup of Eibach and Koni.
Did you end up making any other changes to mitigate the issues you were facing? e.g with spring pads, koni settings or bumpstops etc. |
