I'm on Bilstein B8's with sportlines for a little over 1k miles, more like north of 1.5k now. Absolutely love the combo for canyon and DD.
Can't speak for track yet as I haven't taken the setup to one yet.. waiting to do so before I give my review as I don't see many reviewing this particular setup, and I want to clear up some things about ride quality as a DD, performance, and whatnot

You got some hard pact data for this? Sportlines feature progressive spring rates. I haven't seen many blown stockers coming around here running sportlines, except for those who twist the seal while improperly disassembling or assembling struts during the install process...
Spring Rate Front:120 - 211 lbs/in | Spring Rate Rear:86 - 296 lbs/in
I'm having a hard time finding specs on the Bilstein B8s and Koni's.. anyone wanna chime in?
