Strut comparison

Holy Cow Bat Man!!

I just recieved my Bilstien Struts/Shocks. These things even look mean!

Here is a comparison shot between a standard strut and the Bilstien.

I think spohn sells them in sets too, though there is a representative photo on the site not one like that..

I like that shot, may cause me to rethink my next strut/shock choice..
