I have Tokico Blues and Ground Control coillovers in my 1990 Honda CRX. Whenever I hit a bump it feels like the car is going to break in half. Does anyone have any ideas how I can improve the ride in my car? What do you think about cutting my bumpstops?

Well, GC's aren't known for their softness, so you could get a different set of springs - like Eibach Pro-kits or Sportlines, those would both be a little softer than what you have on there.

Also, you could upgrade the shocks. Blues are not able to dampen the bumps as well with higher spring rates, like those on your GC's, whereas a better shock, like Koni, would definitely be able to handle the bumps with higher spring rates...just something to think about.

Also what size tires are your running?

 

I am running 195/50 15" tires.

 

what's your spring rates and how low is your car lowered?

 

yeah i'm running tokico blues and neuspeed springs and my ride isn't dropped that low, give or take about 4 inches or more off the ground. the ride is rough, so i don't think tokico blues are not really great. i'm saving up for some yellows right now and some ground controls but my ride is uncomfortable for me i feel everything

 

watr u comparing it too? your stock ride? with upgraded lowered suspension the car will tend to be stiffer. get some adjustable shocks and lower spring rate springs. GC makes any rate right?

 

i know how you guys feel, ive been riding on **** sence if been driving, 5 years now, i just cant seem to spend the money on a nice setup. whenever i try and save up, something else on my car goes to poo. and i must fix it. lol
