Got my shocks!
So excited.... I have them in my hand now... will be posting pics and subjective review for the B8 + Eibach combo compared to when it was completely stock and when it was just with Eibach springs and stock shocks.
Should help some of you folks when deciding. Damn they were more expensive than getting a set of Tokico D-specs locally... better be worth it!

Dude go to the track this season please I beg you and see the real difference (with my STOCK setup lolz)
I am going RB spring + Bilstein soon...I am too old to notice those cracks and bumps on street fast enough so 0.5" lowered is fine :P
P.S: How much you paid for it Footman?

hehehe.. they even have a holographic sticker saying "Track tested on the Nurburgring" for these shocks! Can't go wrong with that for quality
On their german website, it also states that the shocks were designed to work either the H&R lowering spring or the Eibach pro kit. As these two were the ones they used to test the combo with. They back it with warranty too.
I used babblefish to read German LOL

Shocks INSTALLED!!! Only drove it for a bit... Will have a more comprehensive review in the coming week.
First thing to note, the car has dropped a bit more in the front. It looks like a Tein-S drop now... There is NO wheel gap now.

So there like the Koni Yellows then? The Koni's are shorter struts, and when paired up with the H-Techs, add another .5 drop all around.
Can you adjust the dampness on the Bilstein or is it progressive?

If I have money, of course I would go to track with you guys... but I have too many other obligations at the moment.
I can say for sure though, as a daily driver, so far these shocks are VERY IMPRESSIVE!!!
I know I'm teasing y'all. but give me another week or so, so I can give all of you and other forum members a very comprehensive review of the Pro kit + B8 combo; one of the rarest around.

Pictures don't do just, I could post pics and just leave it at that, but I really think for those interested to come out to the next meet and see for it yourself.
