Not at all. The ride is exactly the opposite of "hopping around" The car was made to stick to the road and it does that. I slow down for bad roads and have the freedom to speed up on smooth roads. The car sticks to the road because of the larger wheels and stiffer shocks. BUT the ride is (in my opinion) slightly stiffer than the stock 88 GT suspension. But like I said that is expected with shorter springs, stiffer shocks and lower tire side walls. I would buy after market lowering springs over cutting springs, but for now the cut springs work. The cut springs are too "soft" They ride good but will bottom out on some of the harsh CA roads. And even if the road is good, I can bottom out the front under hard braking or hard cornering. So stiffer lowering springs will work better for me than the cut springs. BUT I am willing to trade off some ride comfort for not bottoming out.

Ya yours is slammed, lol, BUT you dont drive it that way. Around here they do, throwing a shower of sparks on every dip and bump in the road. At shows I see tons of tuner imports with body kits and all the noses and side skirts all broken up. Most are in a perpetual state of body repair.
