The Golf R springs with Bilstein B6 dampers did moderately lower the wagon's body roll and, paradoxically, not really negatively affect ride quality from what I can tell.

Pros: lower body roll
Cons: turn in isn't as sharp
Mileage: 53000 km

I run Bilstein B4s in my project Rabbit. The car rides and handles great now. I drove it to work not long after getting it back together, and it was a very smooth, quiet ride.

Pros: smooth, quiet ride
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Bilstein B6 for stiffer suspension -- helped a ton with tire wear given our driving habits and locale. Much better ride in the twisties.

Pros: better ride, stiffer suspension
Vehicle: Mazda

just did Bilstein B6s. I generally want an OEM feel, but tires are so much stickier now, so going B6 made sense.

Pros: good OEM feel, suitable for modern tires
Vehicle: Porsche

Save the expense of paying for those shocks and go with Bilstein or Koni, buy the deflator/compressor and come out way ahead. Airing down makes a big difference.

Pros: save money, good alternative
Cons: stock suspension
Vehicle: Nissan
