Anyone has B16 comfort on their xdrive?

Hi,

I currently have B12 set up on 335d xdrive. I just can't praise these set up enough, especially after driving a standard 335D xdrive yesterday and only then I could really see the difference.

The car is just planted on the road, zero body roll and speed driving is effortless as I would say its rather dangerous in the OE setup.

However, my B12 are slightly too low for me and I've got a pain in the rear with zillion speed bumps in my area and the fact in need to slow to crawl speeds to cross.

Im therefore looking for B16 Comfort kit. Its fully height adjustable and thus I can preserve the OE levels of height, but retain the sport shock advantages like B12 which doesn't offer height adjustments.

Any feedback here if anyone is using Comforts? Thanks

I'm pretty sure Gordon on here, whose username escapes me for a moment, had the B16 setup.

The B12 kit uses B8 dampers which are approx 30% stiffer than stock so pretty firm and, as you say, have no height adjustment.
