Thread: Bilstein B8 or other shocks too pair with Eibach Springs

  1. #1

    Default Bilstein B8 or other shocks too pair with Eibach Springs

    I need some shocks to go with my Eibach Springs on the 2006 Mazda 6 MPS!

    I heard Bilsteins and Eibachs were a perfect combination! The problem is I can't find it anywhere on the internet.

    Are there any other shocks that have a good compatibility with the Eibach Pro-Kit Springs?

    Could anyone source one for me or point me in the right direction, thanks

    You could try shox.com - can't see a listing but might be worth an email.

    Koni FSD's

    I have just had a set of Bilstien B6's fitted to my MPS 6 along with the Eibach springs - result is a much improved ride.
    for the B6 try the RPM store - they also have prices for Koni yellows and the FSR.
    I have recently has dealings with the RPM store and found them to look after the customer very well.
    Also if you order from them ask them for a quote for shipping - turns out to be much cheaper than the rate shown using the web site calculator.

    I will have Eibach springs and Koni FSDs on my car in the next couple of weeks.

    Any idea what the differences in the B6 and B8 are?

    PS. I only see Bilstein HD Series Shocks on rpmstore

    B8 (Sprint) - shortened shock, designed to work best with lowered springs

    B6 (Sport) - standard length shock, designed to work with factory springs

    I think you'll find the shocks on rpmstore are the B8, but an email to them should straighten things up for you.

    Thanks for clearing that up for me, I guess B8 are the ones I'm after then!

    Whitewun said he was running B6's with his Eibach's, and he got them from rpmstore. Maybe I'm wrong about the "HD" shocks on rpmstore being B8's. Ooops.
