[QUOTE="willy5, post: 199238, member: 2319"] Stick with the eibachs, i had tried Vogtland and they're crap (too low and soft and i was scrapping the bottom of the car over bumps and bottomed out in corners that were uneven). Had used the black Bilstiens (cheaper) and the ride was OK but they don't last long (100K km) and already gone. Had yellow Bilsteins on previous car and they seem to last forever, 200+ K km and still going strong. Also felt that Eibach and black Bilsteins were not a really good match and also had to cut short and re thread the absorber rod or the springs would dislocate whenever the car was jacked. The yellow sports Bilstiens I believe are shorter and are firmer in feel (read better for handling). [/QUOTE]
