Shocks question

Would these Bilstein B4’s work on the S6? I only see them listed on ECS for the C6 A6 but it looks like they list the same bilstein B4 for the rear for both the A6 and the S6. I’m looking to stay on stock springs and ride height.

This one for the front is listed only under the C6 A6

But this one for the rear is listed under both.

OK so it looks like the fronts are different so disregard my initial question - what about this kit? It looks like it can be used with either stock or lowering springs. I’m looking to stay on stock springs would these present any problem with that? I don’t way to end up with the car riding any higher than stock height either…

Bump. Anyone have any insight on those shocks and struts linked above? What are some of ya’ll running? There has to be some alternatives I can run while keeping the OEM springs.

I have Bilstein B8 at the 4 corners. Very very good chocks with stock springs. I had them before on my 3.2 TT with H&R springs, very good setup too.
They will bring some more sportivity to your subframe, but without decreasing comfort.

It won’t have any impact on car’s height. Springs and weight impacts car’s height. Not shocks…

Much appreciated man

So the ECS site doesn’t show bump stops for the rears on the full set. But the individual rears only look like they have the blue bump stops. And they can’t confirm whether the full set comes with them or not for the rear. Do you recall if yours came with any or did you use factory or aftermarket ones?

I have B8s too. Put them on about 55k miles ago and they’ve been great.

I have re used factory ones.
