Bilstein Shock absorbers
531sb2
Rating 4.0
  • Bottoming:

This is what I did to make my '80 Diesel Caddy a 1 Ton Rabbit on the cheap: 16V Scirocco front springs; they have the highest A-1 spring rates that came stock in the US. Bilstein HD front shocks.

Pros: highest spring rates
Cons: stiff in the back empty
Vehicle: Volkswagen

KONI Shock absorbers

Rating 3.0
  • Body bounce:

Personally I think Koni Reds (better design and build quality, but the same soft ride, with performance gain), are too soft. I've had them on some of my other cars before, and I don't care for them. I've been much happier with the Bilsteins I've installed when compared to the Konis.

Pros: better design, build quality
Cons: too soft
