I replaced my struts and shocks at 110K with Bilstein HDs and am very pleased, but I like a stiff suspension (and I'm 63, by the way). I replaced the struts first, drove for a couple of days and then replaced the shocks, so I can attest to how well all four work together. The overall improvement in handling was very noticeable, particularly in directional control in bumps--the tires stay glued the road.

I later put in the IPD heavy duty sway bars and all of this has transformed my 850T into a sports car!
