http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_Car-...ayphotohosting I was wondering if I should get these, I ran the part numbers at Bilstein.com and found that they are touring class shocks, would these be good to run lowering springs on? I'm not overly concerned with improving the handling as long as I don't end up bouncing off the road and into a ditch after hitting a speed bump |  |  | | 01-15-2009, 10:38 PM | #2 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2008 Location: Raleigh/Charlotte, NC Posts: 1,233 |
now sure how well they work with lowering springs, I have them on stock springs and they ride great. __________________ -Jeff

well, I've heard that running lowering springs on shocks not made for them will blow the shocks prematurely, that's my biggest concern | | | | | 01-15-2009, 11:15 PM | #4 | | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Elizabeth City, NC Posts: 3,877 |
You probably don't want to run lowering springs with the tourings. I'm pretty sure they are for OE replacement. __________________ ~Dave~
