Bilstein B8's

[tmontague]

I'm in need of changing my front suspension to something a little stiffer than the KYB's I currently run. The Tokiko Blue's in the rear are great and lead to a fun aount of underster but it is a bit too much so time to stiffen up the front a bit. I also wan't a strut that is specific to lowered springs.

A year ago the KYB's were the only option for a "slightly stifer than oem" since the Blue's were no longer made for the Yaris. However, I recently noticed on ebay that Bilstein makes the B8 and B6 for the Yaris and they are about $155 up front per strut. The B8's are a shorter strut for lowered applications and the B6 is for oem height or a slight drop (<25mm).

I can't find any good reviews online for the B8 and noticed that some members on here were running them. Curious as to how you guys found them as it'd be good to know before I shell out the cash. Much stiffer and more controlled than oem?
