Don't think the B8's are what you want. You probably want the B6 for OEM replacement.

I have also been recently considering the Bilsteins for my car. Found that the B8's have a shorter body and are for use with lowering springs, and even then some information I found says that only for springs more than 40mm lower than stock.

Was wondering if I needed the B8's for use with Racing Beat springs, but as they only lower by approx. 12mm (1/2") I don't think I do, and if you're staying with OEM springs, I'd say definitely not.
