To other car's suspensions. ie) harsher/softer than Subaru WRX, WRX STi, E46 M3 etc. Thanks.

Guess there's no concensus on Vogtland ride quality.

Stock WRX ride quality is softer than the Vogtlands.
STi the ride quality is harsher(IMHO) than the Vogtlands.

I think the Vogtlands are at the right point of being stiff enough but are still comfortable for everyday driving.

Default Thank you.

Have you driven both an STi and Vogltand equipped S4? I'm just worried because I'm in Massachusetts where the roads are ****e.


I've driven a stock WRX (and really like the ride quality). Never driven an STi or vogtland car but everything I read about STi's say they are VERY FIRM that's why I'm a little worried about this being the case with the Vogtland Coilovers.

A friend of mine has a STi, which I've driven and been a passenger in. I don't think I could drive it everyday. My girlfriend complained that the STi isn't comfortable.

I have Vogtlands on my car and I like them. No complaints from the girlfriend after I installed them. I commute in my car everyday and I don't regret the installation.

Default Where in the country do you live? What are the roads like?

I like south of Boston, and the roads go from being pretty decent to utterly terrible. Any suggestions?

Also, what type of wheels/tires do you run? I'll just be running the stockers with a summer tire or 16'' winters with winter tires.
