jacky, if you really want comfort, don't touch on rims, suspension and lowering car. Or you will be just like me that my wife always complain.
I agreed Ricky, sprint booster is just for imporved the acceration response. Sway bar improve the cornering. But both are not affect the comfortability much.
But if you want to change the look to become more aggressive, such as bigger rims, lowering the cars, the ride comfort should be less.
By the way, welcome to join our e60 family,
Keith: i use Re001. I am considering just change back the rear spring to OEM. What do our members think??

No, but seriously, i think the main reason for the ride being harsher is because of your wheels... If you change back to OEM springs, then would it be a big difference??? Im not sure...

Should give you slightly less bumpy road feel compared to Eibach, but it wont be the different of day&night.
Are you travelling the "Lung Cheung road" back home everyday?
I went to my mate hse in Kln tong few weeks ago and i feel very bumpy and noisy aswell!!
Probably the worst highway in HK!

Why should we care more and compromise,
life is short and we should play hard while we can.
You can tell your grandson that you got a cool car when you were young, thats how life should be!!
But we are not married and we will never understand i got to say!!

well my advice is its ok to get married, its just one of the stages in life but just make sure you REALLY know what you are getting urself into. mind you, these days you dont need to get married to have kids, just get an egg from someone you like and send it to the lab, pay some $ to a surrogate mother, viola.
