Bilstein Suspension
Driving a vehicle equipped with Bilstein Gas Pressure Shock Absorbers is an exhilarating experience. There is, quite literally, nothing like it. Unbelievable control and stability. Precise handling. Ultimate performance. And incredible comfort.

Since our inception over 40 years ago, Bilstein has been a unique and driving force in the automotive suspension industry. Bilstein was first to apply the patented gas pressure principle to controlling ride characteristics on automobiles and introduced the world's first monotube gas pressure shock absorber. Today, Bilstein continues to be the leader in monotube gas pressure shock absorber technology. No other shock manufacturer has been able to equal the performance and enhanced ride characteristics of Bilstein. The Bilstein name graces not only monotube gas pressure shock absorbers, but also single and twin tube Macpherson strut style suspensions.

From racing and testing in Formula 1, NASCAR, SCCA, Rally, and Off Road to original equipment on BMW, Ferrari, Jaguar, MercedesBenz, Porsche, Subaru, Toyota, GM, Ford, and Chrysler vehicles, Bilstein Gas Pressure Shock Absorbers have proven to be the best.

OES - Original Equipment Supplier (dealer Parts)
OES stands for Original Equipment Supplier. This refers to the part that is provided to us by the actual vehicle manufacturer. So when you see a part that has OES in the description, or we refer to a part as OES this part actually came from the vehicle manufacturer and in most cases will come in the vehicle manufacturers packaging and is the genuine product. On our web site we are not allowed to indicate the item as “genuine”, so for the items that are genuine factory parts you may see the item listed as OES or in some cases you may see OE Service. So if there is any confusion as to whether an item listed on our site is genuine, please call our customer support staff as they can determine if the item is in fact genuine. These parts are in fact the same part you would get at the local dealer.
