About Bilstein

Bilstein has been the OE shock supplier to Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Porsche, and Ferrari since 1957. German-engineered B4 OE replacements, B6 sport, B8 lift-corrected, and B14/B16 coilovers — every Bilstein damper carries motorsport-derived monotube technology.

Performance Handling for Your Classic VW

The Bilstein B8 Performance Plus 30mm strut insert is designed specifically for Volkswagen enthusiasts who want to maximize the potential of their lowered Rabbit, Scirocco, or Cabriolet. If you have installed aftermarket lowering springs, the B8 is the essential companion to ensure your suspension performs as intended.

Engineered for Performance

  • Shortened Stroke: Specifically designed to maintain optimal suspension travel on lowered vehicles.
  • Monotube Technology: Provides consistent damping force and superior heat dissipation compared to twin-tube designs.
  • Improved Cornering: Sharper turn-in and reduced body roll for a more dynamic driving experience.
  • Reliable Quality: Built to Bilstein’s world-famous standards, ensuring long-term durability and performance.

The B8 Performance Plus insert is the ideal solution for achieving a sportier look without sacrificing ride quality. By controlling the increased spring rates of lowering springs, these dampers keep your tires planted and your handling predictable. Whether you are hitting the track or enjoying a weekend cruise, the Bilstein B8 provides the stability and responsiveness that your vintage VW deserves. Upgrade your suspension system today with the best in the industry. Discover more high-performance parts for your Volkswagen at GGCRACING.
