Help Deciding on Shocks

I know this issue has been covered a ton. I've done lots of research up to this point, so please hear me out.

My 300ce is lowered on H&R springs. Everyone on the forums (not just mercedesshop) say that Bilstein Sports are the way to go. So I was convinced.

Then I call up my mechanic and suggest installing Bilstein Sports, and he tells me that they are really harsh and that he has had customers come in to have them removed. He said I'll feel every bump, and they are only necessary if I'm planning on racing my car.

My understanding was that the Sports are made for lowered cars since they are shorter shocks. My mechanic is recommending the Comforts, but my understanding is that those are pretty soft, and they're longer shocks.

Anyway, my mechanic is very knowledgeable and honest, so I wanted to confirm with you guys that the Sports are the way to go. Thanks!!
