Default Advise needed for shock/strut replacement

Hey guys,

I am going to replace the shocks and front strut cartridges in my 1988 930 and would like your advise choosing between the Bilstein HD or the Biltein Sport.

I do not track the car but would like a nice sporty ride without bone jarring discomfort.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts,

Blaine

Conventional wisdom is HD inserts, sport shocks.
