Hey! I find the suspension setup on my 6C 1.4 TDI too comfort-oriented. So I'm planning on changing the shocks on the front to some Bilstein B6.
My idea is to just change the front ones, as the rear OEM ones seem stiff already. Maybe later change them if needed...
Is this something completely wrong, or can I get away with just keeping the OEM rear ones?
Changing front shocks only

Did you end up fitting the Bilstein B6 shocks in the end?
Trying to work out what to fit on mine - thanks

Hey! I kept the original shocks for now.
But the plan is to swap the rear springs with the OE sport version, using the original shocks, as describe in ciclo's topic. That was the recommendation from some users.
