Thanks, madman. coz i wan to make the car comfortable while driving.

if u wanna make the car comfortable.... why are u looking at adjustables??? for comfort, nothing beats the stock suspension.

even soft/hard adjustable at the softest setting is still significantly stiffer than stock suspension

lolz, i ask opinion of one of my mechanic friend, he said no need to go for adjustable, just change a bigger size rim would be good enough.

For Kelisa, I tried many diff shocks before. Went through more than 6-diff units in these 8 years on my 2 K-cars. The Kayaba and Perodua shocks are too soft to me - oil type. Comfort if going slow but will bottom out easily. Really liked the ride and handling of the Sachs shocks which is a little firmer but lasts only about a year before it KO. Maybe it is my driving style and road conditions...

well, my driving style is a bit ganas type. so was thinking any opinion from all the senior in here.

Aiyo... Dun say ganas driving la. Later people thought you road bully... It is called spirited driving... What I know is if you want comfort have to stick to stock springs. Just that I can't find a suitable, comfortable and long lasting shocks. Tried local brand Hara, lasted me almost 2 years before the gas ran out and seals start to increase in resistance. Feel was good though. Sachs also nice but last 1 year before gas ran out and shocks have that loose feeling. Do let me know too if you find a good one. Maybe need to get serviceables.

well, i might stick to stock for now, until i get new rim for my car, coz now i'm using stock rim. the steel type.
