My ride is not harsh at all. But I upgraded from Stasis Streetsports to GTs.
The ride on the GTs is better than SS. And according to the latest national reports, Hawaii's road are in the top 3 for worst roads in the country. I'm also running 18s.

No, not exceptionally harsh, wrong word, I just didn't know what to expect ride wise
It is a very noticeable difference though over stock. I guess it is just more noticeable in MI than other places. I'm not saying i'm dissatisfied, actually the complete opposite. Love the look, handling and the wierd sounds my stock suspension made are all gone now!!!! so I'm very happy. But, if someone is looking for a suspension that retains almost stock ride, maybe a little rougher, this is not the suspension for you

Yes, I agree w/ most of HIS4 comments, especially since it seems the roads in HI are just as bad as
here in Grand Rapids. I think the difference between are two opinions is he went from already have a coilover setup installed to another coilover setup, whereas i went from stock suspension to the GT's. He had already been riding w/ coilovers on and knew what kind of ride to expect with them, whereas I had merely read people descriptions of the ride after installing different coilover setups. But no, not exceptionally harsh, but I would definitely describe it as being harsher then I originally had expected.d
