There probably is a slight loss of "feel" if you compare before and after on very smooth roads but I would suspect the toe-in settings may not have been all they could be on the Dealer's car.

Yes I agree there may be a loss of feel but you definitely do not need to hang on like grim death when a bumpy section of road appears.

I agree, the major reduction in bump steer allows a lighter grip on the wheel and you can carry more speed along a bumpy road. On one of my favourite back roads I'm now comfortable at 50 whereas pre comfort kit 40 was enough

With the comfort kit installed along with the Blockley tires my car has been transformed! No loss of road feel, as in, everything is still there but it is no longer traumatic. The Avons were skittish to a fault. If you run them at the recommended 22 lb. they can get very squirrelly on hard corners. The Avons flex so much I felt there was a danger of popping them off the rim. The Blockleys are biased car tires. I've been running mine at 24 lb. with no problems in handling or wear. A good, solid tire for this car. No evidence of flexing like mad or being mushy.
So much going on at the front end of this car. Every little bit counts!
What's your mileage? Who cares. Is it practical? See #1. What happens when it rains? You get wet.
