cusco zero2s for bay area streets

For those who have/had cusco zero2 coilovers (also zero2rs), how are they around the bay area? One of the other guys on this board says he sometimes get air around the crappy parts of 880 near oakland. Does anyone else have experiences to share? I have ridden a zero2 coilover equipped WRX (HongKongBeef's car) before, but I'd like to know how it is in terms of the bay area (I didn't get a ride in the bay area) as that is where my primary driving will be.
Thanks in advance.

they are all good. No need to set them too stiff for the jacked up roads here.

Zero-2's are great. I recommend higher rate springs ala "Imprezer's Spec" with 10kg/mm rear and 12kg/mm front. That is much better than the ones they come with.

if you don't mind peeing blood that is.

That is pretty damn stiff for those of us that drive on the street. I drive about 25k a year.....that's too stiff for me. And I like stiff cars. I ran 12k/16k on my last car for a while. Zeals. Damn near killed anyone that road with me.

for those that drive there car like less than 10k a year and do track days....that's a sweet set up.
