Stiffer than stock so increases performance, but provides a smooth ride for daily driver (good for areas with rougher roads). Will work with standard springs or ///M 318TI springs (up to 1" drop). Lowered to $200 plus shipping (firm). Retails for $400. Selling because I just bought an M3 and I don't have time to install these on my 318TI. They are brand new and in the original box, includes front and rear. Will post some pics if needed. Official Description: Bilstein TC Touring Class Unit. This is a twin-tube low pressure gas design. They feature the same German engineering and quality as the world famous Bilstein Monotube Gas Pressure Shock - but in a new twin-tube design. Self-lubricating seals. Machined valve components. | | | 04-23-2008, 02:48 PM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Eugene Oregon Posts: 6,182 | if they were sports they would be sold. good luck with sale.

Bilstein TCs will be slightly stiffer than Base/Active models, but will be softer than Sport-model struts/shocks. Bilstein TCs will fit, they just won't be matched to the Sport-model springs. | | | 05-01-2008, 09:40 PM | #12 | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Eugene Oregon Posts: 6,182 | ohh thank you for the clarification! learned something new! __________________ -Josh Sold-1995 318ti, Club Sport, Hellrot Sold-1996 318ti, Active Model, Boston Green Current- 1995 318ti, sport model, schwartz | | | 05-02-2008, 03:16 PM | #13 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2004 Location: Northern Michigan Posts: 867 | you can get the same one's on ebay....tech deals... __________________ [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC] | | | 05-12-2008, 09:37 PM | #14 | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2004 Location: atlanta Posts: 145 | Still for sale | | | 05-12-2008, 09:55 PM | #15 | Junior Member Join Date: Mar 2008 Location: Pittsburgh, PA Posts: 28 | So I'm wondering, what will I give up if I purchase the sportier Bilsteins versus these Touring ones? Will my ride be harsh? Or will I simply enjoy the feel while still getting through the potholes unscathed? The roads here in Pittsburgh Penguins country can be harsh. | | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
