Suspension
Suspension is the system of tires, tire air, springs, shock absorbers, and linkages that connect a vehicle to its wheels and allow relative motion between the two. Suspension systems must support both road holding/handling and ride quality, which are at odds with each other.
The tuning of suspensions involves finding the right compromise. It is important for the suspension to keep the road wheel in contact with the road surface as much as possible because all the road or ground forces acting on the vehicle do so through the contact patches of the tires.
The suspension also protects the vehicle itself and any cargo or luggage from damage and wear. The design of the front and rear suspension of a car may be different.
