didnt make it ride a lot worse....little noisier which is expected from a lower profile tire than stock......as far as bumps and things like that, it isnt too noticable that im on 17's......the 45 series tire is perfect...

i do have a little issue with rubbing, but im getting that worked out......

you wouldnt happen to know if there is a different between the left and right front springs do you? it seems my driver side dropped a little more than my passenger side did.....what im thinkin is they made one side have a little more of a firm spring rate, maybe to accomodate a driver always being in it.

if anyone can help me on that id appreciate it

oh and the rub is only on serious bumps like on the freeway that i dont notice...some firmer springs would take care of the problem, so would trimming the inner fender a little....or thinner tires.......

a lot of people roll the inner fenders with a round hammer or baseball bat.
