Hi Wondering whether Bilstein B4 dampers are any good? Planning to use these with lesjofor or pi lowering springs with a 40mm drop on my 940. Anyone have any experience of these? Thanks

I'm planning on running these. I tried Bilstein touring class on the rear of my 945 ( spax springs -40mm ) and found them too harsh. I would imagine they'd be ok on the front!

i run b4's and 40mm springs on my 850 and they are bang on mate, i did have b6's before that but found them a little to stiff. b4 shocks are like oem replacment.

I have B8's on my 940 with -40mm springs, the ride quality is perfect. Would be better if the springs didn't lower the rear more than the front though!

Great to hear it. Will have 2 month old baby onboard some of the time so sounds about right. Time to go shopping!!! :dgrin::dgrin::dgrin:

I have run b4s with kilen 40mm drop springs with no probs at all.the lesjofors springs are very good I fitted them to my mates 940 with b4 shocks and he is happy and the car sat level.i found with the kilen springs that I had to cut a coil off the front spring to make them sit level but no probs after that .
