What is the best option here eg Bilstein, Eibach etc that will give a decent ride on british roads ?

Aug 26, 2010 #5 OP OP spy Active Member Joined Aug 22, 2010 Messages 168 Location London Car Mercedes Thanks guys. What is the difference between the B12 and B14 ? Also, are they best used with their own springs or with H&R or Eibach springs ? I am looking for a fast road setup lowered by about 30mm, so nothing too hard etc.

B14 is adjustable ride height 20 - 60mm lower than stock. Both come as a complete set-up with matched lower springs. Bilstein use H&R springs. B12 @ £700 B14 @ £1100 (approx) + fitting
