Alpina shocks were stupidly hard - I've seen E30's with domed turrets and cracked inner wings. No need for a road car shock to be that hard.

I've got l, B8s and Eibach -40 with H&R anti roll bars on my IS and there stiff but not stupidly hard.

Are "we" saying B6 are better for a road/fast road car? :D
