Ive just put -60mm springs on with koni shocks and the ride is absoloute terrible, the car is bouncing all over the place even at low speed. Question is, is it supposed to be like this?

Had 40mm on before with standard shocks and it was great compared to this

no, should be solid, you should be able to feel every little crack in the road, not bouncing over them. are you sure the shocks have been put back correctly and the spring is the right way round?

Were the shockers new?

If second hand they might be shagged.

theyre adjustable, one side was set to maximum stiffness, the other side minimum. Hopefully this is it
