For the last year, I have been living in Boston, and for all those of you familiar with the roads up here (and those not) it pains me to drive around (both literally and figuratively).

The roads just kill me and the car with all the hard jarring jolts and the like. So what I would like to do is replace both the shocks and springs to give me a bit of a softer ride.

From what I have been reading, the Bilstein touring seem to be a good choice for softening things up a little, but does anyone have any recommendations for a softer set of springs?

Now I know all you purists and racers might give me some flak about not being able to corner as hard or lose the original sport feel of the car, but I have to do something. I think both me and the car are soon going to be shaken to death.

Can someone else offer up and recommendations for a set of springs, or something else to soften things up a bit? Many thanks. -Mike
