I drove both, and KLEEMANN are far better than BRABUS.

Go drive a BRABUS car, it will feel like any other car you drove with a set of bilsteins.

Kleemanns speed sensitive, gives you a comfortable ride at normal driving but very sporty when needed.

That's because Brabus uses Bilsteins that are custom valved for their springs. You get what you pay for I guess.

What are the price difference like though? Anyone has a quote for both springs?

And what is the labour cost for these? I suppose it will be the same price for both brands.
