Firm suspension
Hey everyone so all TLXs have the same suspension ? I have a advance 2wd loaner and it feels firmer, mine is a later build and both cars has the same wheels and tires and air pressure

different engine weights + car weights due to SH-AWD means different shock and spring tuning for a good ride...
