Bilstein B8
The BILSTEIN B8 Sport gas-pressure shock absorber is purpose-built for vehicles with lowered suspension setups.
With its shortened open and closed lengths, the B8 is the perfect match for aftermarket sport springs, delivering precise handling, improved stability, and enhanced road feel. It’s also the ideal choice for certain factory sport models equipped with OEM lowered suspension, ensuring optimal performance without compromise.
Built to OE standards, the BILTEIN B8 Sport shock absorber offers increased levels of handling performance. The BILSTEIN B8 Sport shock absorber is the perfect suspension solution if you’re looking at better handling dynamics for your vehicle without lowering ride height, providing comfortable performance in all sorts of driving conditions.Â
The BILSTEIN B8 Sport shock absorber uses a 46mm piston and implements Bilstein’s mono-tube technology in its design.
The result is more damping force, even under loads, providing you with performance that you can feel. With increased dampening control and an extended service life, the BILSTEIN B8 sport shock absorber has been designed to perform consistently across all road conditions.
Optimum road adhesion and enhanced stability in both day-to-day and extreme situations are just some benefits that the BILSTEIN B8 Sport shock absorber provides, allowing for a safer, more enjoyable driving experience – all of this without the need for any additional spring changes.Â
