I don't think it changed the ride much at all. Just the larger tires made it a bit slower off the line. If you crank your torsion bars all the way it will be stiff. So since I tightened mine quite a bit it got a little stiffer but the extra travel makes it almost seem the same. Of course you do loose some of the car like handling. I find myself slowing down a lot more for corners than I used to, but it doesn't feel tipsy at all.
