BMR 1 inch
How much ride quality will I sacrifice by adding the drop springs?

Mine is Ok. Potholes or uneven pavement at speed are sometimes cringe events.
Watch for road kill or crap in the road. I hit road kill and listened to it hit everything to the rear. I did the 1 inch but actual drop is 1.25 . I would suggest some aftermarket shortened coil overs. |

I’ll add that we take trips all time in and usually prefer it .
300 plus miles a day , 2 lane and interstate driving not a problem. No kidney belts needed. Lol Don’t be afraid to do it but aftermarket coil overs would be good. |

It is not too bad. I notice it the most when someone is in the passenger seat. It will stiffen up the ride, but honestly I prefer the way it looks a whole lot better.

I did the 1" drop, trailing arms, toe rods and bushings at the same time. 90% of the time it rides like stock. The times it feels harsh I believe it's because of the bushings and arms not the springs. I drive 500 mile round trip to New Orleans very often and enjoy the drive. I say do it.
