Default Which one is softest PSS10 on pos-1 or HD?

Hi Bilstein experts!!!

Being concerned by the Targa roof reliability, I'd like to know which solution is softest: PSS10 on postion 1 or HD+M033 springs?

Thanks for your help,
Vincent

If your current shocks are the original ones, both alternatives will give you a smoother ride anyways. Just get the pss10s. You will probably never even leave them on the softest setting! There is such a huge difference between 1 and 10. 1 will be way too soft on french roads.

The dual springs design is great.

Envoi moi un message si tu as plus de questions.

I would guess the PSS10s. I have the HDs and feel like the adjustable Koni Sports on my 968 can be a good bit softer.

Having had both M030s and Pss10s, I say the Pss10s can get softer.

I would never go back to MO30s after having used Pss10s.

Alot of input on M030 combo's but what about MO33's + H.D.'s v.s. PSS10's. I think that's what Vincent is getting at here. I suspect the MO33 softer sport spring is a good deal softer than any M030 combination. Anyone have experience with both?

The Bilstein HD's are on the stiff side. The PSS10's ride smooth, even in the middle of their settings. There great on small bumps. It's the big bumps that you feel the stiffness of the PSS10's. But the M033 setup should be about the same as the PSS10's set on the harder side.

The PSS10's tender spring really take the edge off & make them run smooth. My wife has never complained, even when I leave them on setting 10 (stiff).

Thanks for your advices guys.

I think that going for the PSS10 could be the best idea.
Essentially because they can be adjust softer than HD+M033 and have a kind of "dual spring" design (I don't really need to adjust compression and rebound very often).
