Hate my golf mk4 with bilstein b4 sport shocks

[turk1]

it's been over a year now since i had the bilstien shocks fitted and don't like them at all, they make my golf v5 feel like a bumper car, i have had eibach springs on the car for about 6 years with the standard shocks and thought the b4 sport would be a better match when it came to changing, but they just feel to stiff and harsh, before i bought them i read on many forums that there not much stiffer than stock and they are just a oem replacement, i also had front and rear top mounts replaced and new bump stops and sleeves, has any one else on here had this problem ?

Yip I'd agree with you , I have b4's on my mk5 gti with standard springs and they are just a touch too stiff, I just thought it was because my old shocks were worn, but I recently drove a low mileage r32 and it was lovely and smooth.i can imagine with your stiffer springs it would be too much for a daily
