i have just fitted a set of g-max 40 mm lowering springs and a set of uprated gas shocks to my car , front suspension is now VERY stiff , bad enough to make my cd player jump over the slightest bumps

have i done sommat wrong or is this normal ?

If G-Max are cheap and nasty , what springs can you recommend ? on a tight budget (as always)

its the shocks which makes it bumpy, not the springs.
