Bilstein shocks - the best mass-produced shocks available for our cars. If you need an economy shock, Bilstein is the right choice. They provide excellent road feel and vehicle control for both street and track. Their inverted design reduces un-sprung weight providing improved suspension responsiveness. High pressure gas charge reduces foaming for consistent performance.

Bilstein shocks are available in three configurations: HD, Sport and RSR

Bilstein HD Inserts

HD shocks were a factory available performance upgrade on 911s and standard equipment on 911 turbos.   They provide good ride quality and control for cars with stock torsion bars.

In-house services are available to upgrade, test, modify, and renew your HD shocks.

Bilstein Sport Shocks and Inserts

Sport shocks are a better match to cars with uprated torsion bars.  Sports are valved about 20% firmer (rebound) than HD and are the standard choice for 914 rear. 

In-house services are available to upgrade, test, modify, and renew your Sport shocks.
