Hey Everyone, I'm thinking about buying some new Shocks & Struts along with my new H&R Super Sports.. Where can I buy Bilstein? Where has everyone else purchased these?

Thanks in advance.

I bought mine about a year ago from Bimmerparts.com. I don't know
if they still have the lowest prices or not, but they were the cheapest when
I bought my Bilsteins.

Yeah, me too. I paid $450 about 18 months ago, but I hear that price is long ago and far away. You may want to see if you can get a good deal on OEM 2003 Cobra struts which are made by Bilstein (don't buy the Cobra shocks, though, 'cos our cars don't have IRS). Also, the eBay suggestion is a good one. I recently changed out my Bilsteins for Tokico 5-ways and paid $450 (new, shipping included, & no sales tax) off of eBay. If you can't find a similar price for Bilstein, you may want to consider Tokico 5-ways ... a real nice product.

Good luck ...

Probably the Bilsteins. But the Tokicos are a VERY good product. The only reason I switched them out was that I could switch to a softer setting than the Bilsteins. My car is "unofficially" the wife's car, so I gotta keep it pretty drivable. The Bilsteins are nice, but a bit firm. If it was strictly my car, I would've left them in there.
