Bilstein Shock absorbers

Rating 5.0

I upgraded to Bilstein 5100 front and rear, keeping the front Toyota springs and replacing the rear springs with Old Man Emu 2895.

When towing my camper now, my 4Runner sits level and handles much more confidently.

Pros: sits level, handles confidently
Mileage: 140000 km

I installed them today as well as the black forest industry solid rubber bushings for the front control arm. I definitely enjoy the ride way better than the shi*t coilovers I had. Very smooth bounce back when hitting shallow parts of the road. Feels slightly floaty which I kinda enjoy. It hooks up to the road when hitting bumps and uneven pavement. B8s are definitely a go to mod if you want to lower your GTI and improve handling

Pros: smooth bounce back, improves handling
Cons: feels slightly floaty
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Bilstein Strut assembly

  • Bounce:
Rating 5.0

The B8's pair REALLY well with the Neuspeeds. Ride is actually less bouncy and the struts dampen better and faster. Bumps in the road that use to be pretty jolty are less of an issue, and body roll has been reduced significantly. My turn in bite feels a tad sharper and the car feels and stays planted very nicely compared to the OEM struts.

Pros: less bouncy, better dampening

I'd personally recommend sticking to OEM (probably Sachs or Boge). My Bilstein warranty return rate since 2016 is close to 100%. B4, B6, B14. All of them. Quality fell off a cliff.

Cons: quality fell off
