Product Details

The Bilstein B8 shocks are built for a 1968-1974 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia that is already lowered. Shorter bodies and firmer valving matched to aftermarket springs, so a dropped car rides properly instead of crashing.

Inside is Bilstein's monotube design, with the gas and oil separated by a floating piston. That keeps damping consistent when the road turns rough and the unit gets hot, where a lesser damper would go soft.

Features

  • For use with lowering spring sets and production sport suspensions
  • Enhanced safety and performance with lowering spring change
  • Sporty feel while maintaining comfort
