If you’ve found yourself here, then Bilstein is a brand that needs no introduction. The success story in motorsport began around 50 years ago when Mercedes-Benz first installed gas pressure shock absorbers made by BILSTEIN into a rally vehicle at the Monte Carlo Rally and won at the first attempt. Ever since, motorsport without BILSTEIN would be unthinkable, from victories in the rally world championships through legendary titles at all of the most important 24-hour races to victories in Formula 1 races and world championships. The list of the drivers who have gone down in motorsport history with suspensions from Ennepetal is also as long as it is fascinating. Racing sport legends such as Klaus Ludwig, Hans-Joachim Stuck and Walter Röhrl celebrated their greatest successes with BILSTEIN. In 2012, the company celebrated a very special triumph at the 24-hour race at the Nürburgring when three racing teams equipped with BILSTEIN technology ended up on the podium.

BILSTEIN combines original equipment and motorsport development with aftermarket and tuning competence in a very special way. This can be seen by the wide range of quality suspensions for series installation to tuning and professional motorsport applications. It is not only original equipment know-how that flows into the shock absorbers but also the relentless attention to detail, which is expressed in the intensive road tests to ensure the optimum coordination of the shock absorbers. In addition to development and manufacturing competence “Made in Germany”, the BILSTEIN road test is a unique ace of trumps as a quality guarantee that every sport and coilover suspension has been put to the acid test in a road test at the company’s own test circuit in Papenburg or at the Nürburgring Nordschleife. Uncompromising quality and top performance are the goal of every BILSTEIN application.
