Default Opinions Bilstein B8 with lowering springs 987.2

One of the combinations I am looking for my base Boxster 987.2, street with some track, is the Bilstein B8 with lowering springs, H&R sport. This is a combination I have heard a few people use, and since the B8 and H&R are somewhat stiffer than stock, they should reasonably match each other in rate. I have stock dampers and H&R springs now, and since it is time for new dampers, B8 is an option as it is designed to go with lowering springs. I know that I can go coilovers, such as Ohlins, and this is my alternative. This seems like it might also be close to the Cayman R springs and dampers as well.

I want to be able to have nice control on the track and also take the car on longer tours. It is my only car. I have had it eight years and might get something else in a year or two when the market settles, so I am not looking for a major change like coilovers.

Take at door height. 13.5in front and 14in rear, wheel centers to fender lip.


Thank you.
