Any interest in Groupbuy for Bilstein B8 shocks/ suspension for the xi

silylanjie · 09-27-2009, 01:11 AM

I asked Supremepower (eric@supremepower.com) and he's willing to help do a groupbuy on Bilstein B8 shocks for XI.. now is to see if there is enough people interested to start one... Also trying to find ideas like a groupbuy with shocks and springs (H&R springs/ Eibach Pro Kit springs)..

i think i'd rather see a GB for KWV1's but I might bite on the bilsteins if the price is right.

Count me in--will be curious to see how cheap we can get them

hopefully we could get a good deal..

Ph0zenstone · 09-27-2009, 01:05 PM

the non-gb price was $725 shipped to NY. How much better can they do for a groubbuy?

I know...

With springs the cost is the same as v1s. Lets just do a groupbuy on the v1s.

silylanjie · 09-28-2009, 02:50 AM

Well KW v1 cost $1,300.00 shipped without groupbuy and (Shox.com pricing) Bilsteins B8 with Eibach Pro kit cost $961.16 shipped without groupbuy...

UdubBadger · 09-28-2009, 11:25 AM

so for an extra $300 you can control the height.... I think thats worth it.

thats very true.. lets see whats the prices we'll get for either suspensions.. I think I'll probably give them a call..

Ph0zenstone · 09-28-2009, 12:16 PM

yeh but i think the Bilstein shox with eibach springs will be a much better ride then have the KW V1's. For myself i dont care about adjusting height. Of course if it was the same price then i'll take the option, but i much rather have a good ride quality before height adjustability

silylanjie · 09-28-2009, 12:24 PM

I just spoke to Eric~Supremepower and I think most likely we'll start a new thread in the "SPONSORS Classifieds/Groupbuys/Specials Area" section... I'll keep you guys updated...

Any set up that can fix those 2 problems I would go for as long as my total outlay is under $1K.

deletedelete · 09-28-2009, 03:30 PM

Why would the bilstein have a better ride quality? I assume thats limited to the street where the v1s would be better for the track?

Besides height adjustment and cost, does the bilstein combo have any advantage?

well the springs/shocks won't fix the rake.. you need coilovers and V1's are like $1400

Dubbedoutbimmer · 09-28-2009, 03:53 PM

I would be in for the V1 kit if under 1k shipped and soon
