I just got back from my 1st road trip-1300 miles w/ my new non hd Bilsteins,
& felt a lot better about them after I saw the difference on the road w/ big
side winds a lot of the way.  They seemed to resist the winds much better
than my og Boges, & handled well on the many dirt washboard roads we drove
on. Otherwise, the ride was not harsh, other than the occasional rattling of
loose stuff in the westy(personal problem).

Pax,
