i'm sure Eibachs would be fine, stance is nice, not too low. Other options out there H+R etc. . .

 

I'm going the same route mate, currently on Eibach's with standard shocks but over winter i'll be buying the front Bilsteins (already have rears) and putting them on in the new year.

Hi lee

So I managed to get some B6s direct from Bilstein UK, managed to get some money knocked off and will be fitting H&Rs with them.

 

Nice one Jay, good choice.

Had B16's on my MK 2 for few years now, can't fault them :thumbsup:

 

Really interested on your thoughts on this setup as considering going same route... However they seem so expensive I wonder if its worth a 2-300 more for V3s or a little more for B16s...

 

I'm on the KW V3 id say it's defo got to be worth paying more for a decent coilover with hight adjustable

 

Damn if I would have known people had managed to get shocks from Bilstein I would have got some to go with my Eibach springs years ago as the complete kits were few and far between and pricey... :yep:
Enjoy! :nice:

How did you get on with them

Hi Lee

The shocks are 25% stiffer than the standard dampers. The H&R s I've got to go with are a bit hard on some bad roads round my area, Eibachs are probably more compliant but once your out on some nice twistys they are great. I would like it to be a little softer on the bad roads but Id need coilovers for that and for the amount I drive the car dont know if its worth it but I would love a set of b16s as you can get the best of both worlds but as a fit and forget option Im happy. This is how it sits with the H&Rs B6 Bilstein combo.
