Bilstein B16 kits are not user friendly, I got one which had special springs which were not compatible with off the shelf race springs and the adjustments were difficult to access. Didn't have a adjustable strut top either, I had to adapt one from another maker at a lot of expense.
The bilstein b6 is amazing never felt safer compared to what came on my 00 vw jetta aka twin tubes the monotube shock bilstein makes is way an beyond better then factory dampeners
Simply can’t get these in 2022, no one in the UK or Europe ever has them stocked, over a year I’ve been looking for B6 shocks for my sprinter van, ended up getting the slightly more expensive Koni actives which I am absolutely delighted with, I can’t imaging the b6 would rival them.
@@aberdeendeltaforce I can't imagine anyone wanting high performance shocks for a van, so im not surprised. Ordered some for my VOLVO S60 and they arrived 2 days later from Germany.
@@MementoMori-xx5qo some of the b6 are specifically designed for the sprinter as the ones for your Volvo are designed for that, if you have ever driven a sprinter you would understand why the b6 is essential and constantly sold out.
Depends on what your definition of better is, to find the differences in these suspension manfufactures products you’d need to be able to explore their limits. I doubt that mere mortals would ever find out the limits enough to ever compare.
@@irfanali-kr9be I've no idea. All I can say is I fitted B4's and B3's to front of my E60 and it raised the front noticeably. I also used Bilstein top mount bearings. Only that I'm selling the car I'd change them. Be careful of what you chose. I believe sachs are the actual supplier to bmw
@@aberdeendeltaforce This is truly Spiralling downhill... We must put Damper's on the situation! To breathe more oxygen into the situation were switching to *Airlift Performance!* 👍
I seriously thought that you said " welcome to fuck off tv " at the begenning 😂😂
i have Bilstein B8 and Eibach PRO KIT on my 2000 Passat, and its awesome!
I've just put the b16 on my RS4. The difference to the stock is night and day. I also changed the bushes to powerflex. It handles like a go kart!
Which bushes?
@Nyle95 all of them! Quite expensive, but worth it.
Please can you explain differences about b16pss10 and Evo T1? I don’t understand clearly…. Thanks a lot . Best regards

Better than KW?

Don't put b4 dampers on a b3 spring on your bmw........unless you want to be able to put your head under the wheel arch
What would u recommend for an e90 330i

Interesting....
They make high quality suspension but all of this is eclipsed by their poor customer service :S
Here one person suffering them!
There customer service is shocking 😂
