Those rubberband tires definitely ruin the ride experience though.

The suspension was designed for tires with sidewall to absorb some of the road shock, those rubberbands transfer every tiny pebble to the passengers.

Assuming the suspension wasn't also changed. Given that it's been dropped, I assume that it has.

That said, 22inch rims and coilovers are going to be a horrific ride regardless.

All that money and work to make it look good on a picture. Zero consideration as to the enjoyment 9f driving it. With very few exceptions, car were made to be driven, so drive them.
