lol, what do yo expect? Of coarse your car is gunna ride like **** and be rough. You lowered i and thats what happens. Although your setup is way it is more stiff than others. You need to look into spring rates and such next you drop your car.

when I set it to 2 up front and like 4 in back, it just feels like butter on the road. If I put it one 1 up front I'd probably rub a lot going over bumps.
I know coilovers are stiff as hell, but agx's should be a very comfortable ride as long as the springs aren't trying to be like coilovers.

stock civic must be the softest thing ever because I've been in other compact cars, vans, trucks and my lowered civic on settings 3(4 is stiffest) up front and 5/6(8 stiffest) in back feels just the same, it's not bad at all. And this is with 17's/low profile tires.

read what you wrote. You were talking about lowered civics being rough. When I bought my civic it already had 2054017's, never sat drove it with stock rims/tires.
I hear all this talk about lowered rides being rough so I pointed out my experience with it.

So you have nothing to compare it to. If you think any ride height on 205/40/17's is like butter, then with 195/55/15 you'll feel like you're riding on a cloud, and on stock tire size you'd think the car wasn't even moving.
I was on 205/40/17's with KYB AGX shocks on 1 or 2, and H&R Sport Springs, and every bump felt like driving over train tracks.
I've also experienced stock 13" rims on the H&R/KYB setup, which was like riding on a cloud; 13" rims at stock height (which felt so soft that words can't describe); and 15" rims (195/50/15) tires on the H&R/KYB setup, which can be rough over big bumps but small bumps are not felt.
Lowered Civics are rougher than non-lowered Civics, but this isn't because of simply ride height, it's because all lowering springs are stiffer than the stock springs, so when you're using anything besides stock, it's going to be more rough to at least some degree.

And by comparing those to MY car, then to say others think lowered cars are like driving over "train tracks" something does not sound right.
