I am used to large cars and this Vibe is the smallest car I ever had,i know its light but does anyone know if there any springs and struts made that will give it a better ride.
I have not had to replace these yet on my 07 or 08 but I have had luck with Monroe on other vehicles. I also see several posts about KYB from Wal-Mart. Not sure how the ride will be with those but you might want to check them out. Maybe another Vibe member has expirience too.
KYB was the OEM provider of struts / shocks on the Vibe.
I have tried Monroe and prefer the KYB units.
Finding something better will be tough.
I recommend shopping at Rock Auto for the best price on struts.

Seeing how you've already put 100k miles or so on this Vibe, the other thing that improves comfort is TIRES. You likely already went through a set or two since you got it.
