Bilstein shocks. Stupid auto correct

I can not recommend strongly enough against getting foam cell shocks, especially if you are going to tour.

Rancho, I can fade these within 15-20mins. The foam cell breaks down and the shocks don't recover from being run hot.

My opinion, is that if you want a cheaper shock then at least use an oil or twin shell type (ie nitro, low pressure etc) and if you want a performance shock then use a mono-tube which is high pressure with oil and gas seperated. In each type there are different qualities from different manufacturers, but I say again that I would not use a foam cell shock.
