Hi everyone

I'm thinking of changing my suspension in near future and wanted Bilstein B8 dampers with OEM springs or Eibach springs, which would of course be the B12 kit. The thing is, whilst searching I've seen Bilstein B8 and B8 plus dampers. Does anyone know what the difference is? I tried checking on Bilstein's website but it doesn't list anything called the B8 Plus. Is this just some resellers playing with the words?

I think, although not sure, the plus version is for heavier stuff. The B8 version for your car is likely also to be call B8 sprint. If you fire off a quick email to larkspeed they have always been helpful and quick to respond to queries.

Ok so the normal ones are called B8 sport and the ones I trying to find out about are called B8 performance plus

A bit confusing then. Just take the part number off the larkspeed website and compare.

Just as an aside, if you need to claim on the warranty then it makes it easier if you purchased in the UK. They have a limited lifetime warranty but you need to return to the place of purchase.
