A search will show that the non heavy duty Bilstein shocks are the "Comfort" or OEM shocks.

The Heavy duty units will improve handling somewhat but many have reported that they feel they are too stiff and wish they went with the Comforts.

It is also mentioned that the current Comfort units are 15% stiffer than the originals.

As a result of this board I went with the Comforts.

Please keep in mind that others DO like the ride provided by the Bilstein HDs.
