Strut suggestions

My new job has me in the city alot and the streets are craparooni. I am pretty sure I need to get new struts, but thinking that I may want something more robust than stock units. I've seen some threads on W123 and W124's but wanted to know if anyone has experience with W210s?

Quick search here did not show much and were focused on high performance upgrades.

Thanks.

I'm a Bilstien guy, they seem to last longer than the Saches in my experience, the B4 is their "improved" OEM that gives a "better" factory ride, which I did to my W211 and I'm extremely happy with, the B6s are stiffer, but defiantly heavier duty. I put them on my ML and they're amazing!

Importec Euro Catalogue sells the B6 (yellow) and the B4, (OEM black ones.)--about $75 a corner, or $300 all in.

Bilstein, Innovation and High Quality Since 1873

The link is for a 98 E320 RWD

Order using the Bilstien numbers.
