On the street, stiffer springs will not reduce the "bounciness"; a softer spring will smooth out the bounce. I've seen JRZ RS2 come with different spring rates but mine was: Front 500lb main spring + 150lb tender spring. Rear 700lb main spring.

I swapped my front main spring to 350lb. It's a bit too soft. I suggest a 400lb would be perfect for the street.

But before you go that route, try adjusting the compression/rebound on the rear first. This will eliminate almost all the "bounce". Start from this and adjust to taste...

STREET SET UP

FRONT
Compression: 5
Rebound: 9

REAR
Compression: 2
Rebound: 5

Note: 0 is full soft
