I haven't heard of anything about the touring class I got the HD Bilsteins. Believe me it doesn't make the car a BMW by any stretch of the imagination, but going from Boge to Bilstein was a big difference (especially worn out Boge's). My case in point is that my mechanic has thank you notes on his wall from all of his 850 customers. With the HD the ride is still pretty firm, but just how the car handles corners and quick lane transitions is ten times better than the Boge's, and it did smooth out the ride just a little bit. But if your just looking for ride and not handling, keep what you have, the 850 is a solid car, but the engineers dropped the ball on the suspension design.
