I have the B6's and Eibach Pro springs & they work great on my '16 R. They firm-up the ride and cure any lean. Overall, they are a little bit stiffer in all DCC settings.

Pros: firm-up the ride, cure lean
Cons: little bit stiffer

I do have B8's paired with H&R Supersport springs and H&R front and rear ARB's(rear set stiff and front to least stiff) on my MK5 GTI. Ride quality under normal daily driving is a bit harsher than stock...but when it is driven with demands for performance, it really comes into itself and gets more stable and reassuring at speeds over 140mph and when cornering.

Pros: more stable and reassuring
Cons: bit harsher than stock
Vehicle: Volkswagen

recently convinced a customer to go with bilstein on his suburban and he has been ecstatic. I only use that brand in my stuff for sure. Made my xj at 6.5 inch lift ride smooth as butter

Pros: smooth ride

I put bilstein 5100 on all four corners of my previous tahoe and replaced all the blown auto-ride shocks. Even with the maxed out keys up front and overall firmer ride up front with little to no downtravel, it still rode far better than stock.

Pros: rode far better than stock
Cons: little to no downtravel
Vehicle: Chevrolet Tahoe

In my experience, Bilsteins are too stiff for the NB, they kept my car up and got like 1in drop with H&R springs.

Cons: too stiff, kept car up
Vehicle: Volkswagen New Beetle

The original shocks were completely shot so I replaced them with Bilstein B6 shocks. The ride feels incredibly stiff on most roads.

Cons: ride feels incredibly stiff
Vehicle: Chevrolet
