I converted a 760GLE to 5.0 Mustang power and everything I could get from IPD. The Bilsteins / urethane bushings and sway bars made that thing a weapon on the curves.

Pros: weapon on the curves
Vehicle: Volvo

JB74W. Stock springs. I have just fitted Bilstein 24-321730 front and 24-327336 rear. It has improved small bump compliance and the rebound rate of the rears is better matched to the springs.

Pros: improved small bump compliance
Vehicle: Suzuki Jimny
Part number: 24-321730, 24-327336

I run bilstein sport with lesjöfors oem style springs and it holds great in corners but little too harsh on ruff roads. Also helps to have r16s instead of r18s even tho they look a lot better

Pros: holds great in corners
Cons: little too harsh

Service writer gave me a ticket for Bilstein front and rear shocks on a 17 tundra, had to rebuild the front struts with the new set. I assumed it was the oem replacement... There's a small snap ring on the shaft of the shock that adjusts the spring seat (also the spring seat in this picture is installed upside down, something I too figured out the hard way).

Cons: spring seat upside down

I used Bilstein OE VDC shocks (same spec as BMW OEM). The FRONT ride is extremely rough and harsh on small bumps. Feels like: the front suspension has almost no travel, every road imperfection hits hard, the front is much stiffer than it should be, and the rear feels normal/comfortable.

Cons: rough and harsh
Vehicle: BMW
Mileage: 10000 km
