I know this will all seem strange...

I run 16" wheels with 225/55 Pirelli P7 and P1's on two sets of Rays CE28's.
Front sway bar is standard, and rear is a hollow 23mm.
Bushes are all standard...but replaced regularly. All arms and links are standard too. (Brakes are AP Racing)
Ride height is set about 5mm above standard.

I've fitted a different rear top mount to release an extra ~25mm of travel.
However, aside from that, the front has the standard length of travel.

I might be wrong, but I've always felt that controlled compliance is your friend for speed on real world roads, and that too much mechanical grip can take a lot of fun out of driving.

This is the comparison of a standard SUS MP21 strut with the TPX as it came out of the box before any modifications!
