Err.... I'm in the market for a set and I totally missed out. |
For what it's worth, I upgraded my suspension and in 1 month after warranty the rear struck was found broken. There are no available replacements from Bilstein in over a year. My old oem would have served better than a new and broken setup even though the oems were worn out.
My thoughts are:
1.) Shops probably won't know nor warn you if an allocation issue is on the horizon. It's real. Bilstein.
2.) Dinan setup works with OEM components and IS an improvement over the stock setup. If something goes bad, you will likely order the oem piece and be in good hands. Does it compare to BrandX? Maybe not but it may be enough for causal track duty until you can outdrive your oem setup! LOL. I've tracked, have you?
3.) If you go brand x and something breaks, it will be costly if you have to switch to another brand! OEM + Dinan, prolly not. Also, even Dinan as a company has changed.
4.) Go back to 1 and really think about it.
5.) Ask the shop to help shield you from this crap.
