    Yes, I have had the PP on since before the change in susp. One thing I did change was a fork seal and oil change at the time of fork adjustment.

    What method have you chosen for adjusting the ride height of your rear suspension? Does your shock have a ride height adjustment? Just curious.....

    You will notice the difference with the same tyres on, had Pilot Powers on at 14mm which made turn in fast but a bit nervous at high speed and at 6mm which slowed it down noticably through the twisties but increase stability on high speed sweepers.

    The Penske shock has a very nice ride height adjustment already built into it. Super nice product.

    The stock 5th gen to me steers like a bus, it didnt take me long after buying mine to decide that I wasnt gonna live with it.

    thanks, I was guessing as to why you chose to limit the rear ride height at the 10-15mm increase.
