Product Details
Bilstein B6 shocks are the upgrade for a 2011-2016 BMW 528i that feels soft rather than broken. They keep the OE springs and ride height and simply take the slop out of how the car moves.
The B6 Performance is a performance upgrade over the factory damper that works with the factory springs. Valving is set for each application, and every damper is tested to meet or exceed original equipment standards.
Bilstein has built suspension in Germany since 1954, and supplies the same engineering to manufacturers as original equipment. The build quality is the reason these outlast what they replace, and they are covered by a limited lifetime warranty.
Features
- Bilstein gas-pressure technology
- Optimum grip and enhanced lane stability in day to day and extreme situations
- Improved safety and performance without the requirement of new springs (use of series spring possible)
