good day chaps.

please help me out. :)

Im in need of some new rear shocks as my temporary cheap and cheerful ones have given up.

i have a bit more money now that i used to and im wanting a set of bilstiens for the rear.

I have a 1.8L touring that lowered 40 to 50 mm ish not too sure. so i think im going to go for a se of B8 shocks.

i cant seem to find any touring or cab specific sets for sale.

will these do the trick? or should i be loooking for more specific ones?

That's because it's springs that are model specific, not dampers.
Your choice, but I wouldn't want to drive on British roads with anything stiffer than B4s.
