This car is fine (so much better than the Benz A160) but with 4 on board the suspension, especially rear, is unnerving. Does anyone have upgrade ideas eg air springs by Firestone, an anti-roll bar change perhaps off a Colt Ralliart. I would value anyones' comments.

Is the CZT the same year and shape? The springs on that are a bit more sporty.

You could always go with a set of Koni's or Teins though. Don't just replace the springs, get full shocks.

Is it the handlign that suffers with 4 in the car or do you get bump or grounding? Are your tyres inflated correctly?

Oh and a warm welcome to TorqueCars, good to meet you.
 
I found out that the CZT is similar to the Ralliart and uses a different suspension setup. I think that I will go for aftermarket springs Lovells DRL97s. These are supplied as lower set but can be modified/raised at the factory to give 10mm higher ride height with 15% stiffer rating. This will take a week or so but I will report back so anyone following along can avail of my findings.
