Hardly no change in the ride when crusing on the highway if there are no bumps or cracks. but if you hit a pothole or drive on a poorly paved road in town than you feel it lol. Its not bouncy but it is extremely stiff. if you lean on the car it dosnt budge. but all of this is expected when you lower any car. but i couldnt tell give you any comparisons because this is the first time ive done this. but i am very happy with the way it turned out.
