Bilstein 22-247360 B8 Performance Plus Monotube Suspension Strut Assembly

The Bilstein B8 Performance Plus Suspension Strut Assembly (22-247360) is a high-performance damper engineered as a direct upgrade over OEM shock absorbers. Purpose-built to be paired with aftermarket lowering springs, this strut delivers the sharper handling and sportier stance that performance-minded drivers demand — without compromising the build quality Bilstein is renowned for worldwide.

Key Features:

• Application-Specific Valve Tuning: Each strut is valved specifically for its intended application, optimizing damping force for precise, confidence-inspiring handling.
• Monotube Gas Pressure Design: Bilstein's signature monotube construction keeps hydraulic oil under constant pressure, preventing foaming under heat and heavy load — ensuring consistent damping performance even under demanding conditions.
• Shortened Performance Stroke: Designed with a reduced stroke length to work correctly with lowering springs, maintaining proper suspension geometry and maximizing spring performance.
• Meets or Exceeds OE Standards: Every unit undergoes rigorous quality testing to ensure reliability and durability on par with — or better than — original equipment specifications.
• Iconic Yellow Finish: Instantly recognizable Bilstein yellow powder-coat finish provides corrosion resistance and a premium appearance.
• Lifetime Warranty: Backed by Bilstein's lifetime warranty on gas pressure shock absorbers for the original retail purchaser.

The B8 Performance Plus is the ideal strut for enthusiasts who have installed or are planning to install performance lowering springs. It is recommended to replace struts in axle pairs — both driver and passenger sides simultaneously — for balanced handling and even wear. Mounting plates and hardware are sold separately.
