I thought the rear BAT springs were too stiff for me. The car has the raked look to it now though, with the rear stock springs. I feel it rides a bit better with the stock springs. I have an $85 credit with Bat for a defective front Spax strut. I am undesided if I will go with the stock SE struts or the Sachs Super Gas strut. I know it isn't as firmly valved strut as the stock SE ones.
