I found the Bilstein HD Shocks to be too stiff for most driving with an empty cargo bay (especially on bumpy city roads)

They felt most comfortable with a few hundred pounds in the back and pretty much require the addition of HD Rear Springs to feel right.

I settled with the Bilstein Touring shocks for front and back.
I also stiffened the car with 25mm front and 22mm rear anti-sway bars, lower chassis braces, strut tower braces and firewall braces. Kept the stock springs.
