So I've been on S-techs for about 4 months now. That's about 7000 miles.
Has anyone noticed the ride getting more bumpy?
I definitely know that the ride is more bumpy than when I first got S-techs on my car. The big question is how many people have had S-techs for 5k-10k miles, and have you made any observations?
Now the ride is tolerable by all means... I just think that the shocks are wearing down and providing less damping than before, but I can't tell if it's placebo, or a slight tire pressure change, etc... I just can't compare the ride to anything since I havn't been in a stock Mazda3 in a long time.
The shocks are by no means BLOWN, they just seem like they might be wearing which is what I expected.
I really want adjustable damping shocks such as Koni Yellows, but I don't want them to wear down after 7K miles...
So should I get prokits to go with the Koni Yellows or FSDs? Or perhaps go with a coilover set? hmmm
Update: I decided on going with Koni FSD/Eibach Prokit combo and bought them already.
