more fun 80% of the time? Yes!. All the time? No, I'd say, for me.Once I have more than 400lbs of passenger or cargo in my Vibe, the car can not physically go over a speed bump at any speed or approach angle. With my hefty dad and hulky me, I bottomed out my car the other day on 3 speed bumps at less than 10kms/hr in a parking lot, and was not a happy Viber.Also, a couple of days when it got below freezing out recently, the ride seemed even stiffer, and every road imperfection boomed through the cabin. Made enjoy these last few warmer days with smooth driving even more. I think driving with my 80 year old grandmother will be interesting this winter...

Below is what i found works the best for me.Tein SSSummer DampingFront: 6Rear: 7WinterFront:8Rear:9Tein RecommendedFront:6Rear:8Counting from the hardest setting extra weight (sub) in the trunk, the rear is stiffer in the summer and not on teins recommended setting
