    Bilsteins are the firm option S40-V40

    Bilsteins are a very good shock but stiff. At highway speeds they provide a very stable ride. Around town they tend to feel all of the little dings in the pavement. A lot better than American made shocks that often cater to the American preference for a marshmellow ride.
