On really bad roads it's noticeably stiffer/bouncier, but in comfort mode it's surprisingly comparable to stock. My previous car (Merc C300) was lowered on H&R's also and it was bouncy like a cheap import. The M5 is nowhere near that. In sport modes it's almost annoying to drive because of the stiffness... but I guess that's the price we pay for lowering it.
Thanks again. Im ok with more "taut" but cant have the car hopping at speed if you get my drift. I tend to drive my car hard and often reach 130 or higher. Im trying to figure out what Im gonna do here:

Form over function hummmmmm
