I'd like to know how the ride quality is with your W*R CP/Koni Yellow combo. Do your front coilovers support the weight of the engine enough or do the springs easily compress while hitting bumps/mild potholes on streets? Are any of your coils compressed on the two front shock towers of the circuit pros (the linear main springs, not the flat helper springs)? Would also like to know what setting you have your Koni's on while commenting on the ride quality during these road conditions. Thank you for your time.

The ride is pretty decent..it's fairly smooth over most everyday driving. However, if you live in an area with lots of cracks and potholes..I would not recommend it. The coils don't compress, unless you bottom out, but then again on lowered cars..this a way of life. I have the Konis turned to about 1 1/2 twists. If you use any more...it can get pretty annoying. That is the problem...every spring was made for the Accord...NO ONE MAKES IT SPECIFICALLY FOR THE CL...this is due to the relatively small percentage of CL owners vs. Accord owners...and since our car has a 66/34 weight distribution, it causes problems for coilovers.
