Title: Bilstein B12 kit
Post by: Nico2904 on April 14, 2014, 07:50:07 pm

Been searching for a B12 kit for MKV GTI. Can you only get the B12 sportline kit, as I've tried to find the B12 pro-kit for GTI without luck.
Should I just get the B12 sportline or can I get the pro-kit under another model?  :confused:
What do you have and what do you recommend?  :happy2:

If you're set on the pro kit then just buy the B8 Dampers and a set of Pro kit springs  :happy2:

There always seem to be some mystique around the 'B12 kit', it's only a name given to either B6 or B8 dampers paired with springs so just shop around for the kit separately, but bear in mind the Pro kit springs barely lower (if at all) the GTi..
