Owner reviews for shock absorbers

Every time I buy a Bilstein monotube I am ultimately more satisfied. Bilsteins seem to last forever.

I had both back to back on an e46 M3 autocrosser and the Bilstein was better all round, street & ‘track’.

Having used both in Street class, I feel like the Bilstein is the answer unless you're a knob turner. They have more compression generally than Koni, but will ride a bit harsher on the street because they're monotube instead of twin tube. The former is typically more performance oriented.

I went with the b6 on my 08 boxster s it really firmed up the ride

I like bilstien myself. Their shock valves tend to be well done. We run B6 on our c5 and it’s great. Very controlled a the comes. And in street my wife daily drives it and finds the ride very good with summer tires

I personally have Bilstein 4600 shocks, and they're pretty smooth after break-in.

After experiencing them... as a cheapskate... id pay full price, absolutely worth it

Put mine on at 90k getting to 125k deep into a Canadian winter, couldn't be happier.

Happy with the cheap kyb gas a just shocks I have on my c1500 for the money but I prefer bilsteins and have had them in many vehicles.

Had new Monroe shocks on my tag axle and they failed within a month take that for what you will.
