Default Bilstein Sport Shocks ???

I have a 03 ZO6 looking to upgrade a few things mainly the shocks... I found the bilstein sport shocks on line and have used them in the past but will they make any difference over the stock Z06 set up? Thanks

- They also have C6 Z06 shocks available what are your thoughts on those?

For handling I love them. I will be swapping mine out for QA1 next month though so I can get some better launches and traction.

Default Sport shocks

I absolutely love mine. I had about 70k on my original shocks. When i switched over to the bilstein sports...I loved it! My c5 finally drives the way a real sports car was intended. There is not dipping or slouching when you take a hard corner. Instead, It follows thru with confidence like it was driving on rails. I would go with the sports for the money and never look back like i did. Im very satisfied. just my opinion and .02. I havent tried the high dollar shocks but am very pleased with these!
