182ff rear shocks

Right. So after changing my fronts shocks after they pissed out oil I now need rear shocks. However I can get some bilstein ones for almost nothing , which is obviously better than paying Renault. My Q Is it ok to have Renault ones on the front and bilsteins on the rear??

Its OK, but I doubt the Bilstein OE spec rears are as good. They are not uprated Bilsteins are they?
Don't pay Renault through the nose. I can get you Renault rears at a good price if you PM me.

i went for the renault ones in the end didnt want to chance it.
However i'm sure it wont be long before these ones need replacing as well, in which case i'll drop you line for some new ones...
cheers

Noticed my rear shock are leaking so looks like my plans are on hold so I can this sorted

Tough trying to get aftermarket for the front so think I may just stick with the standards. Did you go for uprated shocks in the end?
