Being looking at these for a little while now. I keep running across comments that they are firm to harsh on the street. I am trying to see if people on here also think they are too firm or harsh.

I drive pry 99.9999999% on the street, so off-road performance is less important than having a comfortable ride on the street.

Current setup is stock with ~80K, with 235-75-15 Michelin LTX M/S.

I know some people on here are using these, or had experience with them. Please post your input, either good or bad.

Should I be looking at other choices...?
 






I had the RSXs on mine. They were good for about 75,000 miles on the street. IMHO, they're not firm enough for street use, but a really great all-around shock.

Bilsteins get rave reviews around here... Can't go wrong with either one IMHO.
