with any lowered after market shocks/springs (sporty variety anyway) there are gonna be stiffer and more bumpy.

I have Gmax on my car and find theyre really good. Give the car a much better look and help improve drivability no end. They are stiff (60mm drop springs and dampers) but providing you cut the bump stops down 20mm at the front you'll have no probs.

I guess it all depends on what youre used too. Prior to my Gmax, I had standard suspension - horrible!

I'm running Spax all round, springs and dampers. It's a firm ride but not too much, the speed bumps are a pain though, I go over them in the Passat like they're not there.....
