How much were the springs? Did you DIY install or get someone to do it? DIY'd shocks/struts/springs on my old E90 and man was it a PITA (not particular hard just time consuming and annoying AF). I did save like $800-$1000 which was the labor rate which I was quoted for all four corners.

Also, you mentioned that they are comfortable over imperfect road surfaces, but super stiff when cornering/under load. I've been wanting to increase stiffness especially when cornering hard. My E90 had Eibach Pro springs which were SUPER stiff, but a bit "bouncy" on bumps on the highways. Do these springs really offer the best of both worlds (as stiff as Eibach/H&R around corners, but as compliant as stock M-Sport springs on rough road surfaces)?
