WHich would you choose if you are to put in new shocks to your Benz???

By the way, where is a good source to get a new set of springs also? The car is too bumpy lately.

KYB's are stiff. I have them on my car now. If I had to do it again, I'd go with Bilstein.

I put a KYB on my SD for about two weeks before swapping the 12 year old Bilstein back on. Junk.
