It is a bit hard when you hit something but the handling is better… is yours your daily driver? If so then I wouldn't go too nuts as like you say it'll be uncomfortable.

Do you think my car is the same height as yours, really hard to tell as you have the p slots.
This is not a dailey drive i will only use it when the weathers dry.
Your car looks immaculate!
