I have H&R springs -35mm. I used OEM dampers for 2 years and than I went for Billstein B8. It is a fantastic setup, not too hard as on a race car but very well coping with all the surprises of the road. And more comfortable than HR with OEM.

But suspension perception is very subjective, I know somebody who has Eibach with B8 and he finds it very hard. If you can, find someone with similar setup and have a test ride. Something comfortable for one, may be unacceptable for the other.
