BUMPY ride with Tein S Tech in DA.....HELP!!!!!!
Ok i have a 91 LS with Tein S Tech (2" Front, 2" Rear but i think its a little lower for both) ive had it lowered for about a week with the stock shocks, and from what ive heard the Tein S Techs are actually SOFTER than stock, so the ride should be pretty good with bumps and stuff, right??? i mean when im in the car alone it feels fine, but i had my gf and her friend in the car last night(3 people), and i could feel EVERY little tiny part of the road, and the car was like....LOWWWW like 2.5-3" all around probably
what should i do??? why is it like that? oh yeah the rear makes kind of a small grinding noise when its on rough roads like residential streets and stuff with rough concrete, why is that??????? help!!!!!!

Stock shocks = your problem
And to add to it your using tein S-tech springs that are known to sag and aren't very stiff.
The reason your car looks alot lower than it should be is also related to blown shocks.

Yes and to add to this, did u even cut the stock bumpstops in half? If u lowered the car 2" and didnt cut the bumpstops, then that is why its so bumpy

i didnt install it, a shop did and they didnt even let me watch the installation
