T1R springs

I had these put on and my car really bounces on the road now, albeit i am lower now, but what do i have to do to get a stiffer ride?

When i was driving on what i thought was a smooth road i actually bottomed out. It could be are sh*tty streets here but i like the less wheel well space but i miss my smooth riding.

Diff shocks?

Any input would be coo.

thanks

It shouldnt bottom out if the bump stops were cut in half.
Bouncy you say? How so, you mean you feel the road more? Thats usually normal when you install stiffer springs.

The stock shocks don't control the rebound of the new springs that well. It was the same with my Civic and Neuspeed Sport springs, until I swapped the stock shocks with Koni Sport adjustables. WOW!! That setup was great! I wish I could've recycled my suspension stuff into my Fit Any pics of your Fit with the T1R springs on? I'm interested in getting them.

The issue is with just the springs, whenever i hit a rise in the road, the car hops up and then down and with nothing to stop it, wam i hit the road.
Someone said dampeners but im almost ready to go back to stock if its going to cost me more $ then something simple.
