I think I've got the B6 on my 9-3, might be the B8 I can't remember, whichever one is "street" option for slightly lowered cars not the racing shocks and they ride great! They're bit harsh on rough roads but they perform so good everywhere else. Absolutely transforms the cars handling
Had the Bilstein B8 with H&R springs for some 5K Km during 2 summers and then threw the B8 out for KONI yellow adjustables.
Can only recommend ????
i just did b4s all corners. feels great. i dont want to pay more for a harsher ride
bilstein 5100s. i installed them myself on the 2016 i owned at the time, made a huge difference in the way the truck handled
I put 5100s on the back yesterday and it already feels a lot better - firmer, more controlled going over angled dips in the road (think of railway crossings or water bars etc), and I am surprised at the reduction in roll / wallow.
I also love my bilstiens, mine are definitely more stiff for daily driving, but I prefer mine off road.
This month, I installed Koni STR.T shocks... The handling is already way better than factory, just by adding more damping over the Euro Tuned shocks.
H&R sport springs 40mm, Bilstein B8s.
Note 5100s are not soak up the bumps kind of shocks. Depending on what you think is atrocious about your current ride, it might not be an improvement. My 08 V8 feels stiffer/sharper on bumps compared to OEM shocks, though it handles them with better composure, less resonance/vibration on hard hits, and handles washboard and bumps better. Also less body roll.
I did koni str.t shocks and struts and H&R super sport lowering springs and it was cheaper than coilovers but I honestly regret just not getting some bc br coilovers
