How RB springs ride when you just had surgery

Had to bring my wife home after surgery, she wasn't digging it too much. Made me realize the springs are definitely stiffer than stock, but still not as harsh as some.

She tolerated the ride and is doing fine. Thought it would have been better to take another car instead though. At least she looked cool riding home in that zoom-zoom thang... Better to look good than feel good.

Well, they are 20% stiffer, correct?

Hope the wife gets better.

Thanks very much, she's doing fine...

Yeah, there is a difference, but its not as drastic as you might think. The first few days it's real bouncy. After a week, they were settled and firmer. Excellent "stick" after a good alignment.
