Bilstein continues to be the best performance shock upgrade available for your BMW. Bilstein is the preferred choice for premium and upgrade shock absorbers for vehicle manufacturers and tuners. Almost all BMW tuners from Germany, such as Alpina, AC Schnitzer, Hartge, and others use specially valved Bilstein shocks. Bilstein's monotube and digressive shock technology wins overs customers and keeps them at the forefront of the performance shock market. They engineer and build each shock for the respective application, ensuring trouble-free fitment and use with OE-type mounts and guarantee their shocks with a lifetime warranty.

Turner Motorsport has been selling Bilstein shocks since 1993 and we are one of the most trusted and knowledgeable Bilstein dealers in the world. What does that mean to you? It means that we get our Bilsteins direct from Bilstein North America, not from a third party distributor. Our inventory is new and fresh, not old stock released from a closed warehouse. So you know you're getting new product and the latest revision available. Our Bilstein department is managed by a shock engineer with years of hands-on racing experience who handles nearly all of our Bilstein technical support questions. Only an authorized Bilstein dealer can offer you such quick service and turn around. A shop that buys Bilstein from a third party distributor can't come close to this customer and warranty support! Super low, hard to pass up prices on Bilstein usually comes with little or no after-sale support, so buyer beware!

Wulf Gaertner Autoparts AG manufactures and markets automotive spare parts under its MEYLE brand. Since its foundation in 1958, Wulf Gaertner Autoparts has been an owner-operated, unlisted family business on the aftermarket scene. Since 1995, Wulf Gaertner Autoparts AG has been manufacturing and trading under its MEYLE brand. They pride themselves on top-grade quality-tested spare parts for passenger cars, vans and commercial vehicles. Struts are vital to your vehicles on the road performance. They improve handling, make the ride smoother, and save wear and tear on the rest of your car's drive train in the process. The strut cartridge is what most people call the shock. It’s the cylindrical cartridge located inside the spring of your steering arm and basically acts as a dampener so that the spring cannot instantly throw your car's chassis back up after hitting a bump. The strut slows the rebound and makes the ride more comfortable and tolerable. Over time, strut cartridges wear out and they prevent the strut from doing its job. When this happens, it will ruin the ride of your vehicle, so needless to say, it should be replaced.
