Bilstein Strut assembly

Rating 5.0

B8's are great. I run them on my MK7. But they need to be paired with more aggressive springs as the B8's are a shorter & stiffer strut. So softer springs will often bottom them out.

Like H&R Sports. Those are a popular combo with the B8 strut.

Yes, you'll notice a difference. As the car will have proper damping. Ride won't be as harsh, bumps won't be bouncy, cornering will be more definitive & sharp.

Pros: proper damping, sharp cornering
Cons: need aggressive springs

KONI Strut assembly

I also went with Koni STRs on H and R springs with powerflex 10mm lowering strut bushing and its a dream to drive. It takes these northeastern new york country roads in strides. Its never bottomed out. And the quality of the suspension just makes it a dream to drive. I drive it hard and it takes it.

Pros: dream to drive, quality suspension

Bilstein Strut assembly

I paired Bilstein B6 struts with H&R springs. Absolutely night-and-day. The car feels so much more secure and planted. The B6's shorter stroke and beefier build prove to be a great quality ride, even in comfort and normal mode. There's little-to-no dive, and the front corners are more responsive and poised under load.

Pros: more secure and planted
Mileage: 37000 km

Sachs Strut assembly

I just have to say it's odd having suspension again. I didn't realize just how gone my suspension really was. I was so used to a stiff ride that now I feel like I'm floating around on a hovercraft. Strange.

Pros: having suspension again
Cons: stiff ride before
Mileage: 175000 km
