435 xdrive and H&R springs ride experience

I read soo many horror stories about the H&R springs and 435 xdrive combo. All I can say is I got mine done 2 weeks back and I love the ride and handling. I drove approx 1000kms by now. They don't feel like a jack hammer. Maybe H&R redesigned the spring that is shared between the F30 and F32. The shop and a very reputable one said they have not had any complaints and people may and could be exaggerating (all the forums I was reading), maybe it was their bad luck w the springs but I can say I am not bottoming out. I even have driven over so many sewers and fair size potholes and it is not far off from stock. Btw my car does not have edc. Car feels planted, no more floating, nose dives on braking is gone and it just looks amazing!! But on a note if I lived where the roads were torn up like Downtown Detroit that I experienced when I went for the Detroit Autoshow it would be very uncomfortable for day to day driving.

I believe the people that said they were bottoming out the bumpstops with h&r springs and xdrive do not have the adaptive suspension. I'm just basing this off of what I've read from several different threads on this forum, but it seems like the people who have the adaptive suspension have not had any issues.
