Hi, may be too late for you, but I just signed up and saw this. I just removed PSS10s (B16s) from my 2002 996 RWD Cabriolet because the ride was much too stiff around town, even when adjusted to the softest settings on all 4 corners. They are overkill or street only use. Former owner tracked the car. The car handled incredibly on very smooth roads but was intolerable for for only street use in the SF Bay Area. I replaced with Eibach lowering springs and Bilstein B4s (for sport suspension). Eibach told me they tested with stock shocks and their lowering springs are made to work with the sport version. Ride height is about an inch lower than stock for the US car. Car is still plenty stiff, but this took the edge off noticeably. I think this setup is a great compromise; you will still notice very bad pavement. My Car also has GT3 sway bars on the least aggressive of the optional link mounting holes, and adjustable GMG upper arms in rear suspension to get the camber right on a lowered car - previous owner added them due to the PSS 10 upgrade. I get alignment and steering calibration in a few days, but alignment seems OK now since ride height now is not that different than it was with the PSS10s. BTW, if anyone wants a nice used set of PSS10s for tracking, I will sell for $500 plus shipping. They are circa 2008, but probably have 30k to 40k on them. I have them cleaned up and ready to go.
