Bilstein 5125 or 5150?

YeloSub7 · 03-10-2008, 12:54 PM

Two ?'s

One, in the TG kit, the 5150's are only $40 extra. Is this worth it?

Also they only come in 12" and 14", will 12" work with the 3" front/4" rear kit that I wanna go with?

anyone? I might order the kit today... just wanna make the right decision. Probably just going with the 5125's, unless someone thinks its worth the extra $$$'s

I would spend the 40 and get the 5150's
12's are what I keep hearing to run up to 5" sas I am researching the swap for my 90 after i get my supercharged 3.4 in.
