    H&R/Bilstein Part #

    My shocks are blown, and I'm slowly saving up money to get some new suspension stuff.
    I'm getting a price quote from a friend and he needs the part numbers, I don't want to give him the wrong p/n and as a result, get something that I don't want.

    H&R Sport Springs for a 325iX
    Part #: 50409
    (found on Turner MotorSports's website)

    Bilstein HD - Front shocks
    Part # P36 0251

    Bilstein HD - Rear Shocks
    Part # B36 2028
    (found on BavAuto's website)


    and what is the difference between the Bilstein Heavy Duty shocks and the Bilstein Rear Sport Shocks, part # B36 2027, respectively?


    Do I have the right part numbers, or did I totally screw up?

    paging Nando....;)

      What is the difference between the Konis and the Bilsteins?
      Is it a stiffer ride?
      This is mostly going to be a DD/mountain ride/ occasional autox car

        it actually will ride better. One of the downsides of monotube gas pressurized shocks is the initial bit of travel is much stiffer. Great for rally/off road though.

        more importantly, you can more easily cut the bumpstops down (by about half is good) so you aren't bottoming out all the time.

          So I just got an offer for an internship over summer, and if it pans out, I'll have a bit of spending money and will probably opt for coilovers
