Bilstein B6 Damptronic + Eibach v1 vs. Bilstein B16 Coilover
The rebound on the OEM shocks are starting to get to me so I'm considering what would be next. I absolutely hate how the car rides in comfort mode. I already have Eibach V1 springs so I'm not starting from a complete OEM setup.
I have read the reviews of both B6 and B16 but am wondering if anyone has experience or could make recommendations on which path to take. My priorities: Street ride must be semi-comfortable. I don't want anything much harsher than my current setup in Sport suspension mode (Eibach V1 + stock shocks). Ride height shouldn't drop significantly more than where the car sits now. I could live with 10-15mm drop but anything more will have me scraping on my driveway. I do not want ride height to increase measurably. I do limited track days, so performance improvement is desired but this is a lower priority than the other two points. Thoughts? TIA for your input!

"The BILSTEIN B6 shock absorbers are compatible for the combination with OE coil springs and lowering springs approx. -25mm. Please check before order the conditions of the lowering spring manufacturer." So I believe swift are almost the perfect match in this case or the MSS HAS spring kit because the MPE/KW HAS are not compatible with B6D. |
