the bumpstops will only make the ride worse if you have the car sitting on them, this will also fcuk the suspention turrets, there is no need to have it doing this. you only need like 5cm bumpstops. on 60mm springs mine has 8cm travel and the wheel hit after 5cm, so i stuck in 3cm bumpstops, although forgot they copmpress a little so im gonna add another 2cm to em.
5 cm is more than enough

yes, upto a point where they are too long and there is no travel. they have em as standard, i just stuck in slightly longer harder ones.
