Shock absorbers Bilstein or Sachs

VW/Audi uses Sachs on some of the base models of their cars and SUVs. Those will be closer to original specifications, with longer service life and better performance than the KYBs.

I got a e92 328i with sport suspension, just put some b4s on this summer. Im liking them, think they are a little stiffer than the stock.

when you guys order your bilstein b4's, do you order them for alltrack or SW? i suppose you want them for SW so their not valved for the taller springs on the AT right?

Bilstien. Price for performance can't be beat.

Bilstien’s, just ordered a new set cause my truck is getting bouncy, They’re recommended every 100k.

It might not matter, but those 5100’s are specifically valved for stock springs. I realize people put aftermarket springs on with them, but your best ride is going to be with stock.

I put 5100's on my 2011 SR5, set it at the highest setting on the front with the stock springs. I put TRD springs on the back, which did raise the back a touch. The ride is harsher in the back and much better up front.

I run 5100s one notch up to be closer to level but not nose high when loaded. Factory springs and no complaints.

The Bilsteins put somewhat of a level on it, and this may be a n00b question, but curious if they can be modified to add a couple inch lift to the truck? It could use it with the bigger tires.

I'm using bilstein b4's and when I put it all back together I ended up with over a fist of tire to fender gap and am trying to figure out how to fix this. Previous ride height was like 2 or 3 fingers between the tire and arch.
