OP - the "floaty" feel you had is more a function of poor / weak dampening and movement in the subframe than anything else. One more thing to add - check out the Dinan rear shock mounts, they supposedly add 10mm of additional travel in the rear and take out the slop from the factory mounts. This helps prevent the suspension riding on the bumpstops during "normal" driving situations.
I think a mild upgrade in the vein of:
- RSFB upgrade (full bushings, not the inserts!)
- Ditch runflats
- Your choice of a mild spring upgrade (too bad Dinan doesn't make their springs for our cars anymore), coupled with a quality damper of your choice (Koni, bilstein etc)
- Dinan RSMs
Should end up with a reasonable enough ride while being sporty and well controlled....
EDIT: Sorry, one thing we haven't mentioned is the BMW Performance Suspsension (shocks + springs). They only lower the car maybe 10mm at most, springs are not as strong as some of the aftermarket ones, comes with improved dampers. If you removed the runflats, did the RSFB, this might be a good setup for you
