based on my experience with 335 when you first put springs in it feels just great, just like stock. a few months later you notice it becomes super bouncy and very annoying. if you drive on socal freeways u feel ur chassis is gonna blow up all the time. theyre just horrible.
i only knew the difference when i switched back to coilovers, well besides the complaints about ride quality from my passengers.

i'd rather stay stock than have that again.
