Carlsson Suspension
OK, I had such good luck with my previous post that I feel compelled to do another one. I tried searching for an answer on the C32 forum, but I don't think I found what I was looking for.
I have a Carlsson suspension. I've probably had it now for over 100K. It's a Fully adjustable suspension. I feel the ride has deteriorated over time, and I'm thinking I need new shocks at the very least. Unfortunately I've been unsuccessful getting a hold of Carlsson or any of the nearby approved dealers. I'm thinking regular Bilstein shocks will work since Carlsson got the shocks from Bilstein. Is this correct? Or, am I kinda forced to purchase a new suspension at this point? If the latter, which one would be the most forgiving (I have a baby now) other than OEM? I would still like to keep the aggressive look, but not necessarily the aggressive ride.
Thanks in advance for any input.

white and whiter
Carlsson RS suspension IS Bilstein PSS9 with different spring rate.
you can either contact Carlsson or Bilstein to get it re-valved.
and we can't help you unless you actually update your location.
