How do you find the steering wheel and steering rack in the 2015?

Subaru have invested a lot of money in the handling department. Personally I wouldn't touch the ride height in case I ruin the handling. But it's your money

At first I found the steering wheel a bit weird but I like it now.

Well thats what I'm kind of worried about.. so how can I lower my car without compromising the already well developed suspension? I'm not really gonna be doing full on track days, or excessive racing style driving so I can probably deal with a little bit of a decrease.....

While the stock suspension is "well developed" its also a compromise for NVH. This should not detract from using quality aftermarket equipment.
Careful though. Once you start changing things, the mod bug can bite hard.

I love the new shape, that's why I got one find the suspension a bit stiff though, you really feel bumps in the road.

New model, take ur time with mods. See what the aftermarket develops and pic and choose the best of them. I'm doing a similar thing with my slightly older RS 40 and am very happy with the choices I have made so far with the research I have put in

There's only a couple aftermarket mods ATM. Wouldn't bother until there's more R&D.
