Replacing Sports Suspension (e70 3.0si 2007)

Our "new" E70 3.0si has the sports suspension. It's quite unconfortable to say the least. is it easy to convert it to the "normal" suspension? What improvements can be done to make the ride more comfortable with the sports suspension?

A bit unrelated (yes, should have started new thread), is the 3.0si this underpowered? I know its 200k@, but it really does not "pull off" - sometimes there is some hesitation, or pulls slowly gradually till it gains speed.

Whats going on?

The suspension probably isn't the issue.

Change to normal tyres. And if you're on 20s or 19s consider going down a size of rim.

That being said I find the msport with 20s and rfts pretty comfortable.

Ah OK, it has the 19s with staggered sizes at front and back. So then you think dropping a size to 18s should make an improvement? (Huh it will not be a cheap affair though)

Better to change to regular tyres and not use run flats and then carry a spare.
