B8/B6 ride fine, better than stock PP Sachs for sure.
Also B6 are fine for lowering up to about an inch, springs won't be "loose".
I got B8s with 1.25" lower Swift springs but with further research I found that people have run the same springs with B6.

I've lowered my Saab on Eibach Pro-Kit's (1.2" drop) and its B6 shocks HATED it. The ride was attrocious after. IMO you need the B8 for any amount of lowering.
