Best for the track?
Looking for views/experience of which would be best for a track setup.
Currently have the standard Sti shocks on my Blobeye with Prodrive red springs setup as per Prodrive instructions. Have already installed front and rear white line ARB's and anti lift kit, but was wondering if it is worth fitting a set of Bilstein B14's? Car is resigned to an uncomplicated track life so I'm not looking at a setup with adjustable damping and rebound setup etc.
Thoughts please,
Dave

Bilstein B14s are a great coil over for the track, but perhaps a little firm for the road. That being said, I've run them on my other car (which is tracked) for several years, as have a couple of buddies, without issues. Great damping and control. And they are also rebuildable, which is helpful.
