Title: Shock Absorbers
Post by: calmwaves on December 28, 2017, 11:10:02 AM

Hi guys! I am planning to replace the factory shock absorbers on my 2005 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe. I have heard good things about Bilstein Shocks (http://4wheelonline.com/BilsteinShocks.4997). My question is what specific series among their line of performance shock absorbers would fit my ride? I am planning to order one online and have it installed on a local car shop.

The Bilstein online catalogue suggests B6. Do a google search for Bilstein Corvette C5 -there is some useful info

What type are on it, often you can cross reference numbers to other brands.
