I'm currently running with B4(Sport) dampers and Pro-Kit springs, and it's sublime. The B4 sport dampers are shorter and a little firmer than the standard B4, but soft enough to work perfectly with the springs.

Bilstein part numbers:

Front Left Side Part: 22-135032
Front Right Side Part: 22-135049
Rears (x2) Part: 19-135052



Price up that combination and see if it's still comparable to the KW coilovers. I know there was no comparison for me.

Do those Bilstein's lower the car? I have some H&R springs and I'm looking to match them up with the right shocks. I'm worried about my car becoming too rigid but I also want to get rid of the 4x4 look.
