I drove a 4.8 with a sport suspension and 20" wheels. I found the ride OK on smooth roads, but quite harsh on unsmooth pavement. Tramlining was a big problem along with a fairly heavy steering feel. On the other hand acceleration was impressive and it rounds a corner like a sports sedan.

I'd like to try one with Adaptive Drive to see if I can get a compliant ride and flat cornering when I'm hot rodding around. I's skip the 20" wheels though.
