[Northern Rider]

I have been researching the spring/damper issue for the LX Hemis. Here are a few thoughts:

The stock setup has been carefully tuned by DCX to deliver a smooth ride while giving good handling and braking stability for a 4 door sedan. The stock setup easily outclasses everything in the car's price range.

Modifying springs without tuning dampers will change the stock ride and handling characteristics. Many owners who have lowered by spring replacements report some negative results.

The most effective way to modify a suspension for a large RWD such as the LX platform is to go with fully adjustable coilovers in matched sets of 4. This gives you a wide range of settings for vehicle height and damping.

The cost associated with coilovers is worth it as opposed to replacing all springs and shocks separately.

The KW's seem to perform quite well. Mopar has released a part number for their coilovers but no price as of yet.

I am going to wait and see what Mopar come out with and then decide between them and KW.
