Bilstein has the name and pss10 b16 and clubsports are great quality coilovers. Pss10 are damping and hight adjustable,not rebound. But it's perfect as they are.
Not tried them on f8x,but they are great on e46,e92 m3
KW v3 or Pss10 - both good choice,similar pricing

Agreed. I have them on my F30 and have been extremely satisfied with them. I wonder when someone's going to put them on an F80.

my only gripe with the PSS10 is that they allow for very short adjustment, 10-30mm I believe, front and back. I'm not one to slam the car, but do believe they should have allowed for the coilovers to lower the car beyond 30mm, atleast to a point where you eliminate fender gap if even for asthetics.

I think they're following the same K&W roll-out model. The Bilstein ClubSport are out. The rest will follow.

Guys,

So the Bilstein PSS10's have just been released for the Car. They offer a nice range of adjustability and are priced really well.

I have had the Bilstein Clubsports on my TAG M4 for about 3 months now and I haveto say I absolutely love them. The adjustability as far as how low you can go is not as much as the KW's however the overall suspension adjustability and quality is top notch!

We have a few sets of B16 PSS10's just came in however they are due to go out quickly. PM me for more information!

Are the club sports available for 5 bolt top mounts?

I believe you're referring to the PSS9. PSS10 allows you to adjust rebound and compression - 10 clicks (although not independent).

PSS9 and PSS10 are basically the same thing. They are both versions of the B16 coilover. They have adjustment with is combined bump and rebound. PSS9 has 9 levels of adjustment, PSS10 has 10 levels. The adjustment on PSS10 is slightly better than the 9, in that there is a more even spread of damping force between each level of adjustment. On the 9 the middle settings are pretty closely grouped together. PSS10 is the more recent version, but PSS9 is still available on some cars.

There is another similar bilstein shock, simply PSS or B14 which is the same shock, but is not adjustable for bump / rebound.

Regardless, they are all a good quality product.

Got it. Thanks for the input. I'm still learning as much as I can about Bilstein.
