Default Bilstiens w/ Sportlines?

Anyone running Bilstien shocks/struts with Sportline springs? Curious on how the ride quality is. Hopefully not too much bump steer and horrible ride quality.

Pretty stiff, you can feel a dime on the street, and on horrible roads I drive like an idiot, side to side action avoiding dips and pot holes. Take offs improved noticably, when I first got in after a day long job swapping, I was impressed on the stiffness and turn capabilities but let down on the fact that I had to drive like an old man over speed bumps. Car looks WAY BETTER.

2 facts:

1. Sportlines hands down make an f-body look awesome

2. they have a completely shitty ride. period. I've rode in a couple of cars with sportlines on them and it' like riding in a go cart (no suspension)
