Tire Rack Bilstien ??

Got a question about Bilstien sold by Tire Rack. Are those the same shock as MR Bilstien ?? If not what is the main difference ?? I check some web pages and i found out that MR shock part no. is different then Tire Rack shock. From i was told they should be the same but I'm confused now. Thanks for your input

They're different....they're the Bilstein HDs. Similar though.

We have them in stock.

Very very similar. Maybe 5% firmer, if that.

By different I just meant that they come direct from Bilstein. Also a lot cheaper.

It will work nicely with stock springs.

A bit stiffer than the oe. Bilstein does goofy stuff with their part numbers also. If they change even the smallest thing about them, type of bolt used, color change on bracket, etc, they change the part #.
