Do I need to buy new springs to install these shocks?

No, the Bilstein B6 Performance dampers are designed to be paired with your vehicle's original factory springs. You can use your existing springs for an improved ride without needing to purchase new ones.

What is the main benefit of the monotube design?

The monotube design helps to ensure consistent performance by keeping the oil and gas separated. This prevents foaming and aeration, which can lead to a loss of damping effectiveness, especially under demanding conditions.

What does 'vehicle-specific ride tuning' mean?

This means the shock absorber has been valved and calibrated specifically for the suspension characteristics of your particular vehicle model. It aims to optimize handling and stability without requiring modifications to your existing suspension setup.
