ok so i currently live in teh DC area and there are loads and loads of potholes everywhere! i plan on getting the eibach springs and strut and sway bars but i know potholes are the enemy, should i just say **** it and wait till i move to somewhere with better roads?

 

I drive 66 everyday (Gainesville to Fairfax) on Sportlines + 19" wheels w/ a 35 profile tire. I bent one wheel last September, but i've been fince since then.

By the way, I also have a DC Sports strut bar and a Progress rear sway bar, but I can't see how potholes would effect those.....

 

If you're not ready to swerve around the holes like crazy...I'd wait. I dropped my car about a month ago, and ever since, the smallest potholes/bumps feel huge! Since then I've been pretty religious about learning the roads, and where to drive on them, so I'm not swerving like a madman...

 

does the ride of the car go to **** with say 18's and a 40 profile tire and sportlines?

 

probably...

 

k thanks...
probably not as bad as 19's an 35's !haha

 

Well I would say it goes to **** if you continue to drive the same way you did when you were stock. It is a totally different setup that requires you to NOT go over nasty bumps and holes. I am completely happy with the ride quality with 18's and stiffer springs. You just have to be smart/aware when you drive.
