re: Bilstein Touring? 200 1991

Hello swedish tractor lovers, it's time for me to look at new bushings of every sort and new shocks and struts etc.. I could wander over to turbo bricks for some performance suspension questions but I think I'll start here with my home crowd since I'm not looking into track racing. I definitely want to subtract some "body roll" around turns whilst still enjoying a comfortable road feel that could be a little firmer than stock.

Anyway here's what I've read: Bilsteins ride "as stiff as a lost climber on Everest" and that the Boge Turbo Gas are the nicer balance between ride and perfomance. Can anyone shed some light on my latest discovery: Bilstein "Touring" shocks and struts? Anyone tried those yet? Am I really after slightly stiffer springs than stock for what I'm wanting (minimize body roll around turns etc..)?

Thanks for any information!
