Has anyone tried the Bilstein B16 Suspension Kit?

I think its time to replace my struts and shocks. I was looking at the Bilstein site and saw the Bilstein B16 Suspension Kit (48-245715).

I was wondering if anyone has tried them and what their thoughts are.

Thanks
Craig

If I remember correctly, Vorshlag in Texas built a 1LE with this kit albeit with some modifications. I drove that car about 3 years ago and was very impressed. Time and money were not on my side at the time and last year I went with the Viking Performance double adjustable Crusaders on my 1LE. With track specific valving and spring rates I'm beyond happy. Car sits perfect and I'm still tuning to get the perfect balance. I was only able to run one track event and 2 autocrosses last year so I still need time to sort it out some.

Yes I saw that Vorshlag has used this setup but as you said with modifications.

Do you have the kit number or part numbers for the Viking Performance set up?

Thanks
Craig

I do not have the kit # off hand and the website doesn't show them. I'll send you a dm.
