Talk to Brad at evosport, they had a kleeman speed-sensitive-suspension that was supposed to have a great ride and very good handling. As I remember, one of the evo guys had it on his car. (be warned, not inexpensive).

Out Of Control!
Kleemann Speed Sensitive Suspensions
I have them on my E55 and they are pretty good. Just about right. Not too stiff and not too soft. Also pretty good at cornering.

For a C32 that is very dangerous. Also cut springs is super getto.
Nuthing is wrong with H&R or Kleeman

So what is the problem with putting just springs with stock shocks?
Stock shocks can not handle higher spring rate from H&R springs. On many cars the shocks simply become soft over several thousand miles and can not control the spring. Car becomes bouncy and hard to control when it hits a bump in mid-corner.

Hi Vadim, I agree. Might add that any "lowering" springs are surely shorter and are that much closer to the stock shock's limit of travel. Banging on the end of the stroke will add to the wear-rate too. This may be the single worst factor of the cut springs too, bottomming out the shock.
Vadim, are you still on H&R COs? Are you still enjoying them as much as you did at first?
