I run 33s with a 3 in lift. Biltein shocks.
Pros: runs 33s with lift
I run 285’s with my 5100’s. No rub, just have your alignment tech do their thing.
Pros: no rub
Those appear to be Bilstein B6 or B8 shocks. They're Bilstein's sportier upgrade over the OEM replacement B4 shocks. The difference between the B6 and the B8 is that one of them is made for lowering springs and the other is designed for stock height. Because these are just struts and not coilovers, the ride height is not adjustable.
Pros: sportier upgrade
Cons: not adjustable ride height
Vehicle:
BMW
The shocks on mine went bad and these were the only choice from fcp at the time. They are good shocks, and should last much longer than oem. They shouldn’t mess with the factory dynamics of the car, if that is what you are worried about
Pros: good shocks, last longer
I personally recommend the Bilstein B6 series for stock ride height utilizing OEM mounts and bearings. Rides extremely and handles way better than stock.
Pros: handles way better
I'm running Bilstein 5100s front and rear with oem springs
Runs great, very nice and comfortable, eats speed bumps and dog shit roads like a champ. Very oem ride feel, just a tad stiffer, rebounds quicker and doesn't hit the bump stops on large drops like I experienced on oem
Pros: nice and comfortable
Cons: tad stiffer
I love my Bilsteins, just the cheap yellow ones I forget the model. The vehicle is stiffer and infinitely better in corners and on the highway.
Pros: better in corners
Cons: vehicle is stiffer
So far they are running great on my 02 limited 4wd
Pros: running great
I also bought front shocks absorbers from autodoc for £70 each Bilstein B4 (really good brand)
Pros: really good brand
