    Slightly....

    Jamessmith,
    I was trying to match the stock ride as closely as possible, and I find the Bilsteins to be maybe 5 to 10 per cent softer. Handling is still good with the Bilsteins, but not quite as crisp as the stock ride.

    When I read he was thinking of Bilsteins, I was hoping someone with Bilsteins would reply.

    I was thinking the adjustable Ranchos would be the shizz, just dial em' in to a preferred compromise of back comfort & handling...
