OK..I gotta get in on this....first, ride quality is a subjective thing...like wine, beer, or sound systems....people with lots of knowledge and experience can have differing opinions...and they are all correct.
As an M2 owner who loves the car and has had a 2002 with Konis and CN36s (for those of you who were driving back when Pirelli was selling CN36 tires!?!), an Alpina suspension in a gray market 323i E30 a E36 M3 and a E90 335i with Konis I have a had a bit of experience. My assessment of the M2 is that the suspension is unnecessarily harsh and bounces a bit. So I went with the Ohlins R&T with a lighter spring rate(80NmmF/160NmmR)....it is now slightly stiffer than stock at 20 clicks, but very responsive and does not get unsettled over road irregularities and large bumps....I might eventually switch wheels to 9.5 x 18" Apex and will then consider swapping to 70/140N/mm spring rates.,....
While some of you guys are goofin...it is a legit issue....and by the way I rented a Cadillac last weekend, well built but a whole different beast...I'll take my M2 any day of the week.....
just sayin....
