new guy w/ G55

Hello New Guy here,
pulled the trigger on a 2011 G55 , pretty much stock with some basic upgrades , wheels /tires , audio and tint.
Trying to source some G63 front coils to level and soften the ride a bit , its a bit harsh and 24's don't help. Also there's a
few issues to sort out but that's also why i'm here.

Welcome! Nice looking G. Looks pretty green, and not brown, for southern California!

Yes Sir

Due to the short sidewalk and the 55’s stiffer suspension . Though not too much on smooth roads but when the dips , cracks , pot holes show up then it’s a different story
