I need opinions on which gives a better ride on the road, OME or Deavers?

From what I read Deavers is top. I'm actually thinking of getting a set.

OME leafs are good for a mid priced pack, Deaver leafs are maybe the best you can buy but they are pricey.

I suggest you buy one of each and conduct an experiment.

I've driven both. Old man emu offers a more comfortable, car-like ride.
