Nice looking ride, how are those Bilstein shocks? Aren't they pretty similar to our stockers? I believe I read that somewhere, I'm just not sure.

Thanks ! Those bilsteins are good ! Way better than stock ! From what i know, its a little lower than the stock ones because of the "cup" where the spring sits on compared to the stock. Since its also stronger than the stock ones, the struts wont go all the way to the bottom. Unless the struts are already bad.

Thanks for clearing that up. About how much did these cost & where did you source them? The only thing I usually see available are the KYBs

I got it used. 200 for the pair. Too bad there's no bilsteins for the rear. Unless youre gonna do a modification for the evo struts to fit in. You can also get new ones which will cost at least 350 each plus shipping. And the good part is that "if" it goes bad, bilstein could repair it ! Good luck !
