What's the Difference Between B4, B6 and B8 Products?

B4
B4 refers to products that are original equipment replacements. Meaning, the products have the same valving profile, ride height and high quality components and fitment as the original equipment shocks that came on your vehicle from the manufacturer. 

B6 for Passenger Cars (B6 Performance)
Bilstein B6 Performance dampers are a performance upgrade to OE dampers designed to be paired with the stock height OE factory spring.  

B8 for Passenger Cars (B8 Performance Plus)
Bilstein B8 Performance Plus dampers are a performance upgrade to OE dampers designed to be paired with aftermarket lowering springs.
