Is the spring Gary! The shock is design to control the spring sprung smoothly.

Actually it's both. But most of the pressure is applied to the dampers...
That's why they're called such. To dampen the ride. :-)

No..it the spring that you feel the stiffness. Most people felt the stiffness from the spring not...
<br> the shock. That's why when they change the shock, all of the sudden, the car ride firm and smooth.

Don't forget the harshness of your 19" rims

You can go with thicker spring pads...or switch to Koni and Eibach for maximum comfort.

I have H&R with Koni, I chose Koni because it's more comfortable than Bilstein, but equal in
performance on a CLK.
