I've come to accept the harsh, bone jarring "thunk" that comes from hitting dips, bumps and potholes but its the floating issue that I am concerned with. I feel like the harsh bumps/dips are more the tires and the heavier suspension but the "floatiness" has to have more to do with the ride height.

Anyone here on an e92 XI have a better experience with the slightly lower suspension on that? Does the e92 still float over crests of hills at higher speed?

I actually feel like my '05 Infiniti G35 stayed a little more planted going over crests at high speed - then again I was probably going 15+ mph slower than I am in the 335.

I know the XI suspension components are heavier than the I. Add in the runflats and the higher ride hight and this is the result.

While I dont regret getting the 335xi, you better believe I will be at least giving the S4 a look when my lease is up.
