SO I recently bought an ep3 and it came in with Mugen SS with 17in enkei rim & 215/40R17 tires. I like the cornering and vehicle stability during turns but when it comes to bumps itsa lil harsh. Is there a way to improve this?

You could go to stock or Aspec... Not sure how much better Aspec would be in comparison. Just know you'll be down grading any way you go. Try a bigger tire would be my advice. 225/45 would be a nice fit. More cushion more traction, win win.

Is there any cons with bigger tires?

Only if you buy them from a prison. :pound:

If your current tires can handle a few psi less, that would help. What brand and model of tires are they and how old?

The Mugen SS is a great setup and only slightly stiffer than stock.

Aspec all the way. The difference in stiffness from stock is hardly noticeable, but the handling is great. You are a little lower, but not slammed.

depending on how much life you got left on your tires i would try to sell them to offset price for the new ones or save slowly for a set you like. personally i find the set i want a discount tire and do a layaway style deal when i notice my tires going bald. $40 here and there to keep it from feeling like a bigger purchase. just how i like to do it... :mredface:
