Bilstein
Porsche Bilstein suspension
The core BILSTEIN brand can look back on a 140-year history. When the company was founded in Altenvoerde (now Ennepetal) in 1873, no one imagined how strongly its products would later influence road comfort and control. Driving dynamics is the company’s focus: realising precise, predictable behaviour and building high-quality Porsche shock absorbers and suspension components. That philosophy underpins the Bilstein range available for Porsche models at Design911.
Common options & kits
Individual replacement parts Specific items to address a particular area or issue without changing everything at once.
- Ideal for targeted repairs
- Lets you replace only what is needed
- Helps keep initial costs under control
- Consistent feel and performance
- Helps avoid uneven wear or behaviour
- A sensible choice for routine maintenance
- Everything specified in a single package
- Saves time compared with sourcing parts individually
- Ideal when upgrading or restoring your Porsche
When should you review or replace suspension on your Porsche?
Checking shock absorbers regularly helps you spot wear, damage or age-related deterioration before it affects comfort, refinement or leads to more expensive repairs later on.
- Existing parts are worn, cracked, scuffed, faded, corroded or missing
- You notice looseness, vibration or an untidy appearance around the area they sit in
- You have had related work carried out and want everything to look and feel consistent
- You want the car to feel smarter and better cared for in daily use or before resale
If any of these apply, it is a good time to review your suspension and replace anything that is past its best so your Porsche stays dependable and enjoyable to drive.

B4 High Quality direct replacement shock absorbers constructed and finished to Bilstein's high standards often far and above what the car was originally supplied with. They can actually be a performance improvement if replacing plain, none gas charged, oil filled dampers. They dramatically reduce cavitation / oil foaming, thus give for more stable damping forces when driven 'spiritedly'. Some surprising cars come with plain oil filled dampers.
Key Features:
- Twin Tube Damper
- Gas pressurized
- OE damping forces

The shortened, high-performance shock absorber for lowered sports cars.
Lower doesn't automatically mean better. Not the appearance of the car determines its quality but the optimal tuning of suspension, springs and shock absorbers. With this in mind BILSTEIN has specially developed the B8 Sprint for cars with lowered bodies.
The shortened version represents the ideal pendant to suspension optimisation for nearly all sets of springs. Fast track changing at high speed, gobbling up uneven road surfaces, ironing out cross washboard surfaces ...The BILSTEIN B8 Sprint not only let's you look good but, above all, it gives you an excellent ride.
