Anyone seen this Eclipse running around Cobb Pkwy? Has a Floyd Co. tag...

18" black wheels with a red lip were tucked with a BOV: looked decent, sounded ok...then it hit a bump. I never knew Mitsubishi put leaf springs and no shocks on cars -- it rode like a u-haul trailer being pulled by a monster truck. Getting on to 285, the approximately -2.5 to -3° camber instantly turned to positive (+) 3° camber like a Skoda jumping dunes in the Dakar Rally :eek: I'm talking about the rear end stepping out at least 6" as the driver and passenger had to be hitting their heads on the soft top barely. Driver was barely able to control it: were we going 100mph? :no: 80mph? :no: 60 freakin mph and the car was completely uncontrollable...i just don't get it. :dunno: I guess as long as it looks cool sitting still right? :thinking:

Wow.

Sounds like cut springs on stock shocks to me. :sicks:
