Awesome... Thanks for the clarification!

I Love My Dinan Suspension Upgrades!

My suspension and handling characteristics have been radically transformed and greatly improved with the installation of Dinan's springs/bump stops/Shockware suspension software/low compliance rear control arms.

Nothing too noticeable during routine daily driving, but things really come to life during aggressive maneuvers - - she feels much more planted, and can confidently negotiate on/off-ramps and curves at much higher speeds.

Dumping the run-flats in the next couple of weeks for Pirelli P Zero's, and hope that high performance summer tires (it never rains in So Cal) will wring even more life and confidence out of a greatly improved suspension set-up.

Just my two cents...
