Live in L.A. and have driven over rough roads pockmarked by pot holes. Had my struts and suspensions checked at 90k, still good to go. The 850 can be a rough ride, depending on the road, even with stock Boge suspensions, springs, and 195-60-15 wheels. You can decrease the psi on your tires to 32 instead of the recommended 36. I found that helped a bit. Oh, and also, either engage those potholes more slowly or maneuver away from them completely. Aside from that, you're reading a message from a guy who's gotten used to the ride and is even willing to upgrade it to firm for even more handling and stability. Regards, ed850.
