Longshot - Anyone Out There With Ohlins Coils?

Hey y'all. Long time, first time. New to me G20 M340i RWD. I don't have the adaptive suspension. Looking at suspension options for this platform that are more comfy than stock, but with enhanced grip. I find the factory M-Sport suspension a bit, bouncy and harsh? Kinda skates even. And I'm coming from a VW Golf R on Eibachs.

Anyway, my search led me to Ohlins. I want something that soaks up minor imperfections better than M-Sport while improving the choppy, factory ride. I hear Ohlins are "Swedish Gold" and will accomplish my goal, but I'm not pulling that trigger without experience. Anyone out there running them willing to let me ride along?

Chubbie has OHLINS installed. I'll find the thread and send you the link.

Thanks! I'm in Huntsville sometimes (not for that lol). I'll hit him up eventually and see if he'll let me check them out in person. Of course I'll offer a lunch/beers bribe.
