    Harsh Ride

    My 04 EP3 rides like it has adjustable coilovers with setting set to stiffest! I'm not sure if it has always been like this (Probably Not) or started after I got new tires the end of last year. It's not bouncy but more bumpy I guess. You would think that if it was bad struts it would be bouncy. Like when I hit a bump or drive on a bad road, it's more like a smack than a jounce. It's completely stock with Goodyear Eagle RS-A 91H tires originally with the stock Michelins.. I'm trying to see if it is just stiff tires. It kinda does seem to ride slightly better with lower psi's but handling goes out the door. The car does seem to be understeering more lately also. The car handled amazing when I first bought it. Any help is much appreciated!

    did you just change the tires? if so, then the difference to you is noticeable. I always personally thought that Goodyears road pretty rough generally.
