Well i can't say what the ride is on other springs, but the H&R sports ride very well.You can feel most of the bumps and dips in the road, but it just feels like a true sports car suspension. I wouldn't say that the ride is all cushy or anything, but not annoying or unbarable, to me its just right for performance handling. I'd say about 25-30% stiffer than stock, not bouncy, good handling, no uneven wheel gaps, and the car has a very nice stance. I got a final drop of about 2" in the front, and about 1.7" in the back.You will need front and rear camber kits for proper alignment too. I ride on stock struts also. I am very pleased with theese springs. $211 at tirerack.com.
