Bilstein B14 - How Low On A T30 With 18’s

[Marcuk03]

hi

I’m finally going for some b14,s on my t6 next week but wanted to check what people’s thoughts are on how low to go with my setup.

It’s a lwb t6 on t5 sportline 18” wheels.

Any pictures peeps have of the same already done I’d love to see guys !
Fitter has adivised I go 55mm down front and back.
Van isn’t loaded with weight at all inside and I’d like the balanced look not jacked up at back.
Thanks all

The balanced look is one of the benefits of B14's against just lowering springs, that can sometimes give the uneven look. (more higher at the front, than rear, but depends if it's a camper or not)

Personally I've set mine on the lowest, but it can be very stiff, specially when mixed with the uprated anti-roll bars. The norm seems to be around 10-15mm above lowest to give a low, and comfortable look, but every van is different, and you might look at the finished job different to someone else.

There are some pics in here to help Team B14
