Been shopping struts for the vert and want to stay as close to the factory ride as possible. But I’m also on major budget. The cheapest I’ve found are Bilstein Tourings for $85 each, KYBs at $95 each and Sachs BMW046046 for $137 each at www.autopartsbrothers.com And the supposed factory equivalent Boge 3131-1091773 (B31) are $105 each at www.germanimportedautoparts.com.
My questions are:
1. Can’t find much info on the KYBs. How does the ride compare to any of these others?
2. Is there a difference between these Sachs and Boge? They are both supposedly OEM, but the Boge carries a BMW like PN. I know they are the same company, but are these the same product?
3. In the real world, am I likely to notice the difference between the OEM and the Bilstein Touring Class?
Any shared experience helps, Thanks!
