For my taste, very harsh(more with sport package)... I prefer the OEM 20's.

your giving up some comfort for looks. I love the tight feel on highways and ramps.

I found it drives a little harsh, but I has 30 series up front and 25 series in the rear. Also, when I hit a groove in the road my X would pull all over the place.

I have the ACS suspension system with my ACS 22's, this rides better than the 20's I had before.

Even before the suspension was installed the ride was just as good it all honesty to me it felt better. (2005 sports with rear self levelling)

I never had any handling issues after hitting potholes etc

Maybe I am the lucky one?
