Any idea on how stiff the coilovers are?

Also, how many miles are on them?

PLease understand that with any coilover setup your ride is gonna be bouncy. So you must decide if you want to sacrifice ride quality for show quality. I put about 3K miles on them.

Actually, they tend to make the ride more harsh, and stiff. If these are bouncy then I'm not interested.

Harsh to me is feeling almost everything in the road, similar to what a stiff setup feels like.

So you're saying this suspension gives you a bouncy ride? More bouncy then stock? Because if I were to upgrade, I'd want to have a more stiff suspension.

yes this is what a coilover set up will give you. If you do a lot of interstate driving you will never know you had coilovers. But like most people will tell you coilovers really shine when your corning because they reduce body roll of the car to a degree.
