Leaning towards the HD all the way around

My '86-300sdl has four year old 80,000 mile on Bilstien HD on the front, and Comforts on the rear. Usually just me in the car. No trunk baggage.


HD on the front and comfort on the rear was supposed to be a good all around cruising match. I do travel through some nearby mountains often and find the "set up for the curve" roll/lean is back. Maybe not a full on "wallow". Pretty comfy on the freeway though.


So now I'm thinking HD's all the way around. Probably this Spring.
Although I'm really not interested in hearing/feeling every rough road surface just so I can zip around the corner faster.


I'm curious what you may choose. But from what you've explained about your driving I'd go for the HD all the way around.


The German gentlemen at the Germanwerks shop who serviced the SDL AC said my shock set up was too soft (shaking their heads at me). Kind of ostentatiously obnoxious I thought. But I suppose the straight truth can hurt.


So there you go. Buy the HD's and let me know if I should.


Thanks!
