where to buy vogtland springs/shocks

Well after much deliberating, I've decided to go with Vogtland springs. Not only are they supported on this board in terms of ride and lowering, but on several other boards as well (Audi).

I've had H&R before (e36 M3) and they do have a tendency to be too harsh, so I'm going to avoid them this time.


I'm having trouble finding a distributor that carries them for the w124. Where should I get them from?

Also, where can I get bilstein sport shocks for this car?

Is a Vogtland "sport kit" available for the w124, namely, a matched set of springs and vogtland shocks? I see it available for other cars.

Ask for Sander - tell him Chris with the W124/Ramil's friend sent you. They are off the 57/60 Freeway so if you're in the area they can install the suspension for you as well.

Thanks Chris, I really appreciate the info.

I just moved to Cali from the midwest so this is all very exciting

No Problem.

Let me know how everything goes and when you go through Sander for the parts. I'll probably order something too.

If you are in San Diego I would call Daryl at shox.com - go to the web site and call the 1-800 number. They're in El Cajon, I've bought two or three sets of Bilstein shocks and Eibach springs from them and I've always got the lowest price and great service as well.
