Bilstein dampers for mk1 172

[IsvenII]

bilstein + eibach pro a better combi than koni + eibach pro? anyone tried bilstein dampers b4, whats the ride like? btw, went thru their site and the part number is HE5-8775 for B12 PSS, i think.

Billys over Konis every day of the week.

agree... very good shocks indeed.

why is it then that no one seems to have bilstein + eibach combi here? does bilstein dampers cost an oil field?

 

[Andy GDI]

PSS9 kit about £1200 ish! so yes.... but supreemly good.

ok that will be the cost of my arms.... how abt ohlins? i understand that the clio cup race cars are using them. they are as costly as bilstein too? cant seem to find a part number in their catalog though.

 

[Andy GDI]

more i expect... bike ones are the top ones... so car ones even more i expect.

Ohlin are very very expensive.

And I dont think Bilstein has dampers for 172 except their top range coilover kit - PSS9.
