My question as well. I was looking at the Bilstein PSS10.

Comparatively the ride is excellent. I have mine set to 4 clicks stiffer than the mid setting, it's still comfortable with minimal bounce (some bounciness will always happen when you go a lot stiffer) and the handling is waaaaaaay better. Love the way my car rides now

Yes you must get an alignment. I have a shop that I recommend in Temple City. $100 for a 4 wheel alignment.

Very next thing on my list to do after a decent break-in period for the KSports.

@Michael,
Do they have the GT-1 to re-calibrate steering angle and such for the active steering as well?
