2003 P5 Suspension
Hey everybody,
just asking for some helpful advice, I have a 2003 P5 and I find the suspension on the car a stiff and ruff ride, now I know I have low profile 16" Dunlop tires but the question I have is what would be the best Product for the Money.to make the car a more softer drive. I was reading about eibach springs but are they used mostly to lower your car? Or would they make it a softer ride as well?
What about the suspension? What would you recommend there?
Thanks in advance.

hmm. Tein S-techs are "sport springs" which are not as harsh but probably harder than stockers. I dont know of anyone who makes softer aftermarket springs...thats like asking for an aftermarket intake that decreases performance.

If I had wanted a soft ride I would've bought a Buick.

you can also drop you wheel size by -1 and then get something of a 55/60 series tire to match the speedo and drive. thing is, its not going to handle as well as the stockers, and won't look as good as the stockers.

lol pretty funny.
I like the way the car Handles and drives, its just wear I live its snows for at least 6, 7 months and then the other season pot hole season
But I think the best idea is not getting low profile tires
Thanks guys
