- Mon Mar 20, 2017 2:35 pm #361366 Good question, Bilstein shocks are made for a large portion of automotive vehicles on the road today. Their shocks can vary from normal factory replacement to high-performance application.
This is more a personal preference. It all depends on our wallet and how deep you want to spend.
Hope this helps.

- Wed Mar 22, 2017 2:35 am #361375 Germans make the best suspensions. Japan's are crap. Even American suspension companies are better than Japanese.

Koni is better than Bilstein.

- Wed Mar 22, 2017 4:18 pm #361378 Does anyone know where I can buy bilsteins for my EG hatch. And can I use them with lowering springs?
Or does anyone have the part numbers for the shocks??

- Wed Mar 22, 2017 6:39 pm #361379 I second the quality of Billsteins. I've never owned them, but I have some BMW friends who were more than happy with them. If they're high enough quality for a BMW, they're great for a Honda.

As for part numbers, you may want to check out their site and contact them if you're having trouble finding out which part # to order. Better to ask them than to end up with a part that isn't properly valved for your car.
