MrG 3 Posted November 18, 2008 whats the issue with the rears? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Batfink 201 Posted November 18, 2008 apparently they are too soft. Fit some 306 rears instead For reference OEM spec Bilsteins are black, uprated ones are yellow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrG 3 Posted November 18, 2008 (edited) In that case I may not fit the ones I have! I did the fronts so I'll leave it at that for now. Edited November 18, 2008 by MrG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tagy 1 Posted November 18, 2008 The fronts are fine, got them on my car. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshpug 1,662 Posted November 18, 2008 just fit original 205 1.9 rears, same part number as the 306 sport spec cars. or the yellow bilsteins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrG 3 Posted November 18, 2008 in that case I'll chuck them on ebay. Cheers for the heads up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bobtt230 0 Posted December 31, 2008 (edited) yup, the STREET lines, the rears awful, fronts ok. I have a set of these but they are all yellow, so my question is what are the front billies in the picture at the begining of this post but in yellow like? oh and they have red springs, does anyone know what kind of lb rating they are (didnt know if they were perhaps colour coded or something like that!?) i supose that would be to sensible lol. but worth asking! thanks in advance bob.

Miles 331 1 Cars Posted December 31, 2008 The yellow one's can be either, B6 or Group N, there should be a part number on them, Red spring's mean's nothing could be a huge amount of manufactures Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
