Hmm..."bumpy" as in you feeling every pot-holes on the road - That's normal because the shocks are new. give it a 1yr, it will become soft. if u find it hard now. It will be worst if you decide to change to coilovers. It going to shake & rattle your ass.

Would like to check if u guys feel our stock suspension is too bumpy. The stock suspension is generally stiffer than the Forte. That's why I think the handling is better. nevertheless, some of us installed Spring stifferners... =)

I changed to eibach spring and i feel the car feeling veri bumpy. Mayb i will change back to stock spring and see the difference. LOL. Coilover can adjust soft and hard right? But our car no coilover had yet to released. Only tech pro which cost 1600 @ Mancando.

It is difficult to balance the suspension by just changing the springs, as the spring rates need to be in-line with the returns from the dampeners aka shocks, else.. u get what u feel now.. veri bumpy.
Coilover is a set, both springs and shocks, thus there are more balanced.

i find it bumpy too. But also because, i'm using stock tyres, the tightness of the tyres also play a part.

bro,
u are right. the main contributor will be the spring.
Tyres only abit. But if u downgrade to 15"Rims, u certainly feel some differ. As tyres are made of rubber. Also flatted n non-flatted tyres, also contributes abit.
Anyway if TS wishes to change spring but lack of budget, can try swap tyres with ur friends n feel the effect.

If only I can improve my pick-up A bit lagg for auto trans bro, after I have done tuning my car feels nicer to drive.. U can try my car when there is a meet up.. And to all, our stock tires side wall is very soft hence stil not very bumpy as stock tire is considered as passenger car tire, I'm on a set of cheapo performance tire by Federal side wall harder. Alot more bumpy but handling and grip alot better.. I guess no 1 can get best of both worlds..
