Re: 2002 Boxter S US M030 factory option strut replacement
i don’t know enough to say whether this is right or wrong, but my shop recommended bilstein B6 to go with M030 springs (from a 2000 S to go on my 98). after driving 20 years on the stock struts from M030 and H&R springs, i found the ride harsh with M030 springs and B6 struts. i’m back to B6 struts and new H&R springs.
i swear i feel the benefit of a slightly less jarring ride with the H&R springs
i’m sure my changes might be confusing. another view
