cool thanks

unfortunately my DRC 4389 was already done. Would have been a perfect time to do it.

What's the difference in ride height? I've never seen a picture or video of your car.

Then the dealer has to do a DRC recharge of course. My dealer did everything for me as part of the DRC campaign which is THE time to do it as the system needs to be depressurized and springs removed, ayway.

The Supersport Plus suspension is 10mm (3/8") lower front and back, and provides a slightly different spring rate.

I consider the Tubi one of the better scores I have made ever. It sounds utterly fantastic!
