What does it exactly feel like to bottom out? Is it like a big ole thud?

thats only if the bump stops are completely destroyed, it will be unusually bumpy, and once the bump stops go, you will probably hear the metal to metal sound

x2, I wish I would have spent less and got basics. I really don't need adjustabe damper. I'm always thinking, "is this too soft? Too hard? Should I re-adjust it?" I just wish I was stuck with something lol.

ordered frm grip motorsports, mad cheap. but... tein prices have gone up. you can get basics around 850.

PS.. I'm much lower now, bought shorter tein replacement springs so i could really slam it.
