Bilstein B12 and Eibach Pro Street kit for the Mk5
PDT:
B12 were a b8 damper that was valved differently to match the spring rate. The springs were H&R (blue) but all B12 kits are discontinued as they are switching to Eibach springs (red)

Its still listed Dave, as a B12.
Is it as good as before?
If not would you still rate the B8 dampers?
PDT:
All B12 are still listed, but not available through the UK supplier, nhave tried to order/enquire about B12 for 3 cars today and have been told to buy B8 and seperate springs as no stock of the new B12 exists. I have not tried one of the new kits but the old B12 used Eibach before switching to H&R a few years back, I doubt they would suddenly drop their build quality and reputation due to a change in spring supplier.
I do a lot of B8 upgrades (just shocks) on BMW's and the difference they make is outstanding even with stock springs.
h4rdy:
Thanks Dave its appreciated.
berg:
finally got this fitted and is an awesome bit of kit, handling is miles better over stock and the stance is perfect.
