I loved the look and handling, but ride quality was brutal on uneven pavement!!

LOL Id fail that test with the stock springs. All joking aside the springs do not make much of a difference, if any, ride quality wise. I can not really discern but Im probably also justifying my purchase. But others who have rode in my car prior and after had no clue.

I think it has to do with the limited drop and car weight too- I had RD sport springs on my E92 M3 and I could easily tell the difference but the car is lighter and the drop was more extreme.
