Bilstein B8 1998 Mercedes-Benz SLK230 Kompressor Rear 36mm Monotube Shock Absorber

Bilstein is well-known for their high-performance suspension components, and their B8 Performance Plus shock absorbers are built to complement aftermarket lowering springs. If you're looking to give your 1998-2004 Mercedes-Benz SLK230 a sportier stance and more responsive feel, this rear shock absorber is a solid choice. It's designed to work with lowering springs, helping you get the most out of that setup.

This shock features a monotube design, which helps with heat dissipation and provides consistent damping performance, especially when you're pushing your car a bit harder. Bilstein tunes these dampers specifically for each application, aiming to bring out the best handling characteristics. While it enhances the sporty feel, it's also engineered to maintain a comfortable ride, making it a good balance for daily driving and spirited runs.

This shock absorber is a direct upgrade for vehicles already equipped with production sport suspensions or those fitted with lowering springs. It's a well-built component that meets or exceeds OE standards, offering an improved driving experience.
