what is every one running

are the BILSTEIN B16 (PSS10) worth it?

thanks

 

I have the slightly older version installed (PSS9) for several years now. If I did it again, I'd probably just install the ROW M030 and GT3 or H&R roll bars and spacers. Even with all the tinkering that can be done, I don't think most people adjust that much lower/stiffer from the ROW M030 european height the car was designed for.

 

Coilovers are nice, but check out the Bilstein Sport Shocks along with the Eibach lowering kit which has springs and sway bars for about half of the PSS10. Lowers the car about an inch.

 

I agree with the fixed shock and lowering spring combo if you're a casual cruiser. If you plan on doing track days and DE's regularly, then I would get the new Ohlins setup for around the same cost as PSS10s.

 

PSS9's since 2006 everday car regardless of weather and track time in the summer. Suspension has over 145,000km on them now. Raised every winter and Lowered every summer. Lifetime Warranty cant go wrong.

 

I think it all depends on what your going to be doing with the car and if you track it at all. Click Here to view our selection of Coilovers and suspension components. Feel free to PM with any questions or concerns.

 

I went with the M030 Factory replacement and now after driving for awhile, I wish I would have went with Coil Overs. Im sure most people will tell you that Bilstein and KW are the best. I would like to upgrade again however I only have 2000-3000 miles on the M030 and cant swap them out yet.

 

You should also check out H&R Coilovers (Tire Rack has the best price) they are German made and come at a reasonable price $1800 - $1900.

 

I've had both H&R COs and Bilsteins and IMHO, the H&Rs would fit people that prefer more spring than dampening. To me they seemed slightly under damped.

If you're planning on staying with stock sways and wanting more spring to control the roll, these might work better in that situation. My $.02
