I liked the PSS9's better than stock, to be sure.
It's just that the Ohlins are
so good on the street that the Bilsteins seem, in retrospect, a little uncivilized by comparison. The damping is just very, very good on the Ohlins. Things like expansion joints and rail crossings are absorbed effortlessly and undramatically, where they were always a little more "bumpy" on the Bilsteins.
Don't get me wrong, the Bilsteins provided an undeniably sporting ride, and I didn't complain about it when I owned them. The stock suspension had a tendency to "crash" over bumps while simultaneously managing to feel uncontrolled and without poise, a worst of both worlds scenario.
