    bilstein b8 dampers and eibach springs fit in your budget. With high quality dampers and lightweight springs you get one of the best kits around.

    b8 is only a type of bilstein damper --there are 3 different rates in this range .you need to check the rest of the part no, to know exactly what you are getting.
    I keep seeing people saying "b8" , or say group N when i am quite sure they do not realise there are more than one damper -group N for tarmac is totally dif than grp N for gravel different prices + different spec of damping in the b8 range ,
    I only stock one type to go with our springs , as the springs were made to match the damper rate --they work very well .
    we will not be beaten when comparing like with like in the bilstein damper range for the saxo .
    so don,t just ask for b8 --you must quote the full part no. - to know if you are getting the right unit at right price.
    If you really want the lower spec b8 dampers I will order them -but not a stock item --price will be less

    I do not keep all the dif spec units as dif damper rates should use dif rate springs and but can offer a choice of rear damper rate .
