You should go drive an M3 and decide.

After this MPS install, the last thing I want to do is to furthur increase the amount of bumps and road harshness. That's the reason I'm wondering if going with a EC-7 is going to increase the harshness more than a non-RFT will be able to decrease the harshness... if you get what I mean

EDIT: Most likely I was wrong in assuming that adding a lighter wheel is going to increase the bumps so the above point is really a non-issue.
Thanks! My wife and I tested an M3 today as it's been noted that the MPS is slightly less harsh than the M3. We loved the ride...it did not feel too harsh for either of us. I think I'm going to pull it assuming my dealer gives me a fair price on the install.
