When I first bought my teal 91 si, it came with what looked like almost new oem struts, and suspension technique lowing springs (silver).... That thing ran like a dream. So smooth, not stiff or too soft at all. Kinda reminded me of my old caddy. Might wanna look into that

This is the ST springs on oem struts, its a decent drop and going over bumps was SMOOTH and even from front to back. I really liked it and was suprised. Sorry for crappy pics but its all i have. I dont own the car anymore.

make sure your front and rear shocks are working and arnt too weak from a lot of mileage
and then bigger the tires you can get on your crx the better it stays in a straight line and in contact with the road. aslo certain types of tires directional tires are smoother and quieter
check your bearings tie rods axles to maintain a smooth quiet rid. oh and balance the **** out of your tires.

Re: How can i make my CRX float like a Cadillac?
^ill keep that in mind. i align my tires as soon as i get the car. i sill need an answer on the 1.8" or 1" drop. i saw one that sells both:

i might just get the 1.8's because lower is better looking. any advice against that? would that sacrifice too much comfort?
