Naku, eto ang masakit. Medyo makapal pa naman ang tread ng adrives ko, kaso nga 3 years old na rin age. I'm thinking of trying to swap them with other tires just to check if the tires do contribute a lot to the stiffness, wag naman sana kundi yari nanaman ang budget haha

I had a 2008 Civic 1.8S and I also found the suspension a bit on the stiff side (using stock A.Drives).
What is the model of your 2006 FD? S? V? The latter had a 15-in rims with a taller tire profile. In theory, the V would be less stiffer than the S, all else being equal.

November 21st, 2017 12:38 PM #17Would you think the springs may also be the culprit? Ang pinapalit ko lang ay shocks kase.

It's not uncommon for manufacturers to source parts from different suppliers throughout the years the model is in production. So yes, that's possible.
Another reason would be, they do these changes intentionally to tweak the performance a bit or probably to work out the bugs that's usually discovered in the first batches of the model.
Is it safe to say that you no longer own the 2006 FD? If you still have it, you can try exchanging the tires between the 2006 and 2010 and see if the issue follows the tires or stays with the car. All I can say is, my FD also had the A.Drives and they were stiff. I did love them on the highway but is a bit uncomfortable on our city streets.
