Product Details

The Bilstein B6 struts sharpen the 1990-1993 Mercedes-Benz 500SL without touching its ride height. Firmer, more tightly controlled damping on the factory springs, so the car settles faster and stays flatter through a corner.

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 supplies suspension as original equipment to manufacturers around the world, and applies the same engineering here. It fits the factory mounting points exactly and is 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)
