My Ride: e60 530i - SOLD!
Default

I did a search on forumers who installed pss9 on their ride! I am thinking of going down that path but I have question..

if one installed pss9 which is definitely stiffer than stock suspension as well as sport suspension, will dynamic drive or ARS become useless?
I have DD with normal suspension so far it has been great, the only thing that bothers me is that there is a delay in body roll control till ARS cuts in. I suspect with OEM sport suspension it will cut the lag to minimum so the feel during quick slalom for example will be seamless.
any thoughts/comments appreciated!

Body roll will be present regardless of the type of suspension -- i.e., OEM (sport/non-sport) or aftermarket (Bilstein, H&R, etc.). The type of suspension will only affect when and how drastic the body roll is during sharp cornering ... this is where ARS comes in. BTW, there should be no lag as to when ARS "cuts in"....
