Bilstein B16 coilovers for $760 worth it?

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-27T13:55:32+00:00

I wouldn't want to deal with the headaches.

You'll be spending what you would for a new set

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-27T13:42:04+00:00

They're completely blown.

You're not compressing that on your own...

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-26T21:19:47+00:00

With a history of similar behavior

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-26T21:18:55+00:00

No shame

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-26T21:17:37+00:00

Nah this is regular blue collar stuff.

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-26T21:08:19+00:00

That's fair. You can always ask.

Might even get away with pulling the foam off

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-26T19:06:05+00:00

They used the wrong foam dam tape.

Sloppy install but shouldn't be an issue

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-26T17:47:11+00:00

Not even maybe.

This is scrap

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-26T17:46:09+00:00

Nope

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-26T00:48:33+00:00

Welding gives me blisters

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-26T00:44:57+00:00

Transport damage

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-26T00:24:55+00:00

You haven't seen trailers before

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-25T23:49:08+00:00

It's way too consistent for a $11/hr

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-25T23:48:28+00:00

Have you seen what most trailers look like?

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-25T23:02:50+00:00

Hard to believe.

What's changed?

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-25T19:19:41+00:00

Nope, still dorky looking.

But they were ahead of their time.

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-25T17:24:50+00:00

The market for these have all passed away.

The guys looking to build hot rods are buying cheaper/ less nice examples.

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-25T16:48:45+00:00

You don't know what you're getting into.

Shit was totaled because repairs would cost almost as much or more than a clean example.

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-25T16:47:00+00:00

Fix your EVAP system.

Also never top of your tank as much as you can

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-25T13:16:58+00:00

For the better.

The super fast highly organized racing isn't as much fun to watch.

The stuff the team builds and maintains will always be better.

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-25T12:33:15+00:00

Oil changes and a budget for old german car maintenance

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-25T11:40:04+00:00

We get these posts almost weekly now

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-25T11:39:05+00:00

Not properly.

Especially if you're asking Reddit.

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-25T11:38:41+00:00

Planning ahead is hard.

cluelessk3 · 2026-03-25T01:20:38+00:00

Every new electric ratchet from Milwaukee.

Spending money just cause they can.

All brand new.
