Yes I took the cheap way out and cut my springs, about 1" front and rear - will a set of Bilstein HD's be able to handle that? The stockers are not liking it at all.....

Bumpy as hell, isn't it? I did the same thing after I sold my Eibachs. Talk about scraping on every speed bump and/or minor indention.

The Bilstein HD's are about at their limit controlling stock springs, but should be a big improvement, none the less. I'd get the 3rd gen rears for a bit more body control and just maybe consider getting the fronts revalved with more rebound to help the handling and turn in feel. If revalving is not in the budget, then regular is OK. It will still be a big improvement over the DeCarbons.

Bumpstops up front are a big deal also. Ditch the crappy OEM's and run the Bilstein bumpstops. The factory ones are super stiff, as well as limit your usable wheel travel.
