I can't give an honest recount since I not only have the Bilsteins on my '95 850 Turbo but I've also installed Eibach lowering springs, IPD sway bars and 17 inch, 40-series tires. As a result, my ride is quite harsh in my opinion but most people who have rode in my car say that the ride isn't as bad as I say it is. And believe me, my car still has to be a family sedan every so often, despite all the mods to it. You didn't mention any other mods done or are planned on your car so if you're sticking with a stock suspension and just get the Bilsteins I can't imagine your ride getting harsh to the point where your wife would constantly complain.

I'm also really interested in the adjustable Konis although I should point out that they are adjustable for rebound only. I hear the hard setting would almost never be used--more likely the medium setting would be good for track use and leave it on all soft for street use.
