The avons ride like a buckboard but R-comps will do that, they handle great, another common attribute to these tires. The Hankooks are awesome, although they wont last too long, but riding them only in the summer helps. The sidewalls are a bit softer than what I would like them to be, but that keeps the kidneys happy on the road. After being on the Avons and the Hankooks the Pirelli's feel just too soft and unresponsive but that will be similar to any other all season I go with.
The Suspension Technique rear bar is amazing, the car rotates so well and just feels totally neutral. I can kick the breaks, on course, through a turn and get it to sharpen up the corner, its soo much better than how much push I used to get.
I really need some non-drop or minimal drop springs with a really hard rate, I'm talking approx. 400-500 Lbs/in, if someone knows where I could find something like that it would be greatly apprechiated.
