Suspension

Hello,

I own a 2006 R500 in need of rear shocks and front struts, I would like to know everyone's opinion on a nice setup.

If lower it what do you guys recommend, if I decide to stay with the stock height what do you recommend???

Thanks in advance

There is really nothing available. RM European or others have after market Arnot airbags for the rear and bilsteins for the front.
Unless you have airmatic suspension where you have in car level control? I presume not.

Thank you for your reply, and you are correct I do not have Airmatic suspension. Front struts rear shocks with self leveling rear suspension. So you're saying the lowered looking W251s have Airmatic suspension?

And thanks again,

JP

Mostlikely
I got my first R in 2011 and I have been active in this forum since. I dont recall aftermarket suspension kits. There was a rear wing kit from WingsWest. thats about it.
