bilstein coilovers pillowball mounts
 
I have one gc8 and I need pillowball adjustable top mounts for my bilstein coilovers.

I dont know if i can use the teins, kzsport or similar top mounts....


HELP!!!!! :wonder:

The Bilsteins are designed to work with the standard top mount. They use the same spigot threading and diameter as stock. So you can run any camber plate designed to work with the stock strut spigot (threaded portion at the end of the strut). I know Cusco and I think AST will work. Not sure what else is available in Europe.

Thanks for your fast reply.

I come of view ones mounts, that says this "Pins are longer than the original pads, which allows you to mount a decent struts."
Maybe it work with my bilsteins?

too cheap, i think to change the busshing pillow ball.

Yes, very cheap. They won't last very long. To get to that price point, the pillow ball quality will be poor. The aluminum plate is much too thin. It will bend very quickly and then you will no longer be able to adjust them. To be honest, I have no idea who in the UK sells decent camber plates.

I live in Spain... I can buy in germany or any other place by internet.

To be honest, I'd look into these camber plates. They are not cheap but they are one of the best out there. They have two versions, one with normal caster and one with high caster. For your car I'd look into the high caster camber plates:
