Whats more bouncy in Sport Plus shock setting or are they pretty much the same

From higher speeds 70-130 on ok roads:

Same question- same setting.



And

What has more lean at higher speeds 70 to 130 in turns:

KW or M550.


I ask cause Im about to cave and ditch the F90 H&R's for the M550's. I find the F90's to be a bit bouncy on compression and rebound even on the most normal of streets much like stock. I am hoping to not get worse quality. But damn I love the M550 look.

Vic,

I think in regards to bounciness they are very simliar in both in 0-60 & 70-130.

If I had to pick one, I would say the M550i springs are slightly better in the 0-60 while the KW are better from 70-130.

At high speeds the KW exhibits less body roll and lean, but again, the difference is not drastic. Miami is not an exciting place to drive so 70-130 turns are few and far between.

My decision to go the M550i route was based on looks and some of the positive feedback from other members. I really love the KW HAS but wanted a more aggressive drop on the front.
