Kouki vs Zenki Damper Rates (2012 vs 2011)
I've noticed the steering for my 2012 feels a lot softer (lighter steering) than my girlfriend's 2011, so I'm wondering if there are differences in damper rate, or maybe something steering related? Does anyone know why the newer GE8 might feel softer?

Yup.. we're both sitting on Swift springs with the same rates though, same exact tires too (size and compound)
