OK so I am chiming in here late in the conversation:
Heavier? really? I bet its less than 10 pounds difference all in.
The harsh ride is definitely your tires.
I've got 98 9000CSE rims (exposed lugnut super areos). I ride on 205 50 16s, Michelin Exalto Pilots.
These things are bad ass.
My car is a 92 900T 3dr hatch, not lowered (stock springs).
That old Phish song comes to mind: "The tires are the things on your car that make contact with the road."
Wicked important, and makes all the difference.
I'd buy the Exaltos again and again...if I can continue to afford them.
THe difference in my ride is night and day, stuck like glue, harder ride, yes, but stuck to the road.
