Actually, I just read your review of the street comforts and that pretty much answered my question. Thanks for the info. One of these days I am going to pull the trigger on some new suspension / wheels.

Didn't you have the Performance Suspension springs with Koni yellows though? Either way, an endorsement of the KW Street Comfort as you mention puts that right at the top of the list. Damn. I'm going to buy one or the other once I find a good installer in Austin. Thanks for your input! |

I am not challenging you, but I am not sure how thats possible? Handling and ride are opposite properties in the suspension world, and the trick is to have something that has tolerable ride with good handling charactersitcs, basically compromise somewhere in the middle. In my mind, BMW PS is well compromised by stiffening up from m-sport, but I can def see that anything stiffer would not be enjoyable, at least to me, I already feel every imperfection translated into steering wheel and my behind from the road surface. High speed uneven surface also causes some whitenuckling, anything stiffer would be downright scary.

linear springs so either of those setups are on short list for purchase this summer. Oh....going with good non- run flats made my handling more predicable and the ride more comfortable. |

Longer shock travel matched with springs is still limited by available suspension travel. Besides how much longer springs can u install in the front, Bmw ps lower spring plate just above the front tire... I will be moving to non-rft myself after this set wears out.
