Does any one know if Bilstein B6 shocks are adjustable?

Don't know, but having b4's on mine, can't help but wonder if it's worth spending the extra...?  Undecided

the funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it

If you want adjustables, Spax used to be the people for them, but I dont know if they still are . Undecided

Web site shows a wide range of specs for each level of shock.

Would appear adjustable b6 are available. Need to get the right ones though...

Thanks Chris, very Helpful mate.

Mine are unlikely to be the adjustable ones in that case.

Thanks for your help.
