Didn't make it to the track today because of work commitments but I snuck out for some spirited driving in the rocky mountains :)

This week I decided that I couldn't currently justify the PSS9s and had the rear struts replaced with Bilstein HDs. I went to an open lapping day today and was very happy with the results. It didn't...

I have them on my Audi A8.

Obviously a way different application on my big car compared to the Boxster. At the price point I like them a lot. Good dry traction (I used them on the track, don't ask) and low noise levels. I...
