I recently did my shocks and struts from fcp also Bilstein and I have no issues or complaints
I just installed Bilstein B4 kit front and back on my 06 E90 last week. Feels amazing. Wish I had gone with B6 or B8 but the B4s are great.
Bought full Bilstein B4 kit for my e90 w/ sports package. Great kit, came with everything you need to replace and all the smaller stuff like strut mounts etc… highly recommended FCP and the Bilstein replacements as the absolute best replacement for OE suspension. Bilstein is a high quality, reputable brand and well known in the industry.
I used Bilstein 5100 and Old Man Emu medium duty springs on my 04. Very cost effective way to get 2.5 inch lift and decent ride quality.
I went with Bilstein 6112's up front and 5160's in the rear. Leveled the front and went one clip position up on the driver's side because Taco lean. After breaking in, the rear sags ever so slightly. It rides great, though!
Same shocks on my 18 platinum. Really helped with the rear end hop; feels more planted too, generally.
Just installed Bilstein 5100 Shock absorbers on my ‘18 Platinum. The truck takes those harsh bumps much smoother now and the silver shocks add a great look to my trucks Black/silver theme.
I run bilstiens, my last set was installed on my tacoma at 245k, i now have 295k and they still ride pretty decent. Im not easy on it either, regularly off roading, pulling 4klb trailers, hauling firewood, stone, scrap metal etc.
I’m stock for now, and probably only going to upgrade to some entry/mid-level Bilstein.
Glad you ruled out old man emu. I have them on my 100 and they are rough!
