Are you looking for an affordable suspension kit?

 

Want to lower your car and replace high mileage, worn out shocks at the same time?

 

This Bilstein B12 lowering suspension kit is the solution. 

 

It's the perfect combination of performance parts from 2 legendary brands.

 

Bilstein started with a set of their performance B8 dampers, then called on Eibach for some of their comfortable, progressive rate lowering springs.

 

The dampers and springs are engineered and matched per vehicle, with proper compression, rebound, and spring rates, for a perfect balance of performance and comfort.

 

Tasteful lowering of up to 40mm (1.6 inches) for an aggressive, noticeable drop in stance that is still daily driver friendly.

 

Experience much improved handling, response, and turn-in without the ride being harsh or bumpy.

 

These kits offer the most bang for your buck and are a great starting point for a budget minded suspension upgrade project.
