Strut assembly Monroe or Bilstein

Bilstein Strut assembly

Got b4 struts for my e92 with sport suspension back in may-june from them. Holding up good, no issues. Had the rear shocks done a couple months before and bought locally but theyre holding up good too, also b4's.

Pros: Holding up good, no issues
Vehicle: BMW

I went this route last winter. Got rid of the awful factory suspension and went with GTWORX set up, it includes the Bilstein struts and RaceComp springs. The car is a lot more planted than before. I would say it's the best upgrade you can do, coming from stock, so well worth the $$

Pros: car more planted
Cons: awful factory suspension
Vehicle: Subaru

B8's are great. I run them on my MK7. But they need to be paired with more aggressive springs as the B8's are a shorter & stiffer strut. So softer springs will often bottom them out.

Like H&R Sports. Those are a popular combo with the B8 strut.

Yes, you'll notice a difference. As the car will have proper damping. Ride won't be as harsh, bumps won't be bouncy, cornering will be more definitive & sharp.

Pros: proper damping, sharp cornering
Cons: need aggressive springs

I regret putting B6’s on my 530i, the OE sport suspension rode much nicer and handled just as well.

I also had to warranty one of the front struts after a year due to a clunking noise, apparently it’s a very common issue caused by the inverted design.

Pros: none
Cons: clunking noise, common issue

Monroe Strut assembly

Id stay away from the monroe struts. I originally replaced my blown struts years ago with the monroe's since they were already built. Honestly hated them, made it just under 2 years and swapped them out for the b4's on all 4 corners (rear shocks needed replacing anyways). The monroe struts also had very little rebound left when i pulled them off.

Cons: hated them, little rebound
