Need a smoother ride...

Post by MX-3 Money »

Well I was just woundering what I could replace that would give me a better ride. I have replaced my struts with new ones and was expecting a better ride. So what else could I replace?

springs and tires.

also check your tire pressure. it should be around 28-30psi. Overinflation will give you a harder ride.

low-rider rims will give you a harder ride.

some performance tires will, and springs are a good way to give yourself a better ride.

When you say springs, im assuming you mean stock springs. Cuz I know lovering springs give a harder ride.

a thick side wall tire will help.

however the mx-3 is a sport compact and as such it will have a somehwat harsher ride :shrug:
