They are standard equipment. Why would you want uprated ones. Bare in mind these will be better than what you have as they wont have any milage on.
On a break from 306oc for personal reasons. If anyone needs or wants me most of you have my number and or facebook messenger
Thanks for the good times guys n gals. I might be back. Who knows.

As the intention of Bilstein, B4 can be compareable to standard (Maybe a little bit better than std).
If you want a better performance, You can looking for B6 or more for Bilstein.
No comment for another aftermarket brand.

The B4's are decent though, I use some with Xsara vts springs, gave me about a 30mm drop and handles well

Any decent/ branded gas shocks will feel like an upgrade if yours are knackered. KYB or Bilstein will do a good job at standard height or even down to about a 35mm drop.
