Bilstein HD Shocks
Guys,
Looking to replace the shocks on my 740 turbo with Bilstein HD's however I can't seem to source them locally in the UK. IPD will supply a set for $445 however its another $198 for delivery which I think is a tad steep. Anyone recommend a "local" supplier? Thanks, C |

HD is a North American model code. We get a different range here in the UK. Friends have previously bought from http://www.needforspeed.co.uk/
There are two models primarily to choose from..."standard" and "sport". The sports (along with stiffer springs and larger anti-roll bars) make them handle like go-karts, but the ride gets to be a bit obnoxious. The standard ones still give excellent handling, but the ride is a bit more acceptable for everyday use. cheers James

Cheers James, that clears up why I couldn't get the HD ones in the UK!
