what does that feel like?
I like it, but it does get kind of subjective with spring rates like those. The car corners totally flat, but it's also extremely firm. You'll notice every single ripple in the road surface, and larger bumps are quite jarring. Overall it's a tradeoff I'm willing to make, but largely because the SVX isn't my primary vehicle anymore. I don't know if I'd trade comfort for performance every day when I'm stuck in traffic.
