The suspension on my Boxster 987.1 with PASM is starting to feel past its best at 75,000 miles and I am looking at my replacement options, I really appreciated the adjustable PASM function on a recent Euro trip and wish to retain this, so this counts out any of the R or Spyder options. The choice as I see it is either replace with OE stuff or look at some the upgraded damptronic dampers that Bilstein do, so either Sport B6, Sprint B8 or even the B16 coil overs. I do NOT want to ruin the ride of my car, which is currently on 19" wheels, although I am looking for a suitable set of 18" I haven't found any yet, I have been down the upgrade route with several of the Lotus's I used to own and although they were all great on track they were definitely compromised on road and I don't do any track days now. I do still drive in a pretty spirited manner and would like the car to be as sharp as possible while still retaining decent ride quality. Does anybody have experience in the above suspension options and can offer advice/comparison with the OE setup??

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Thanks for that, interesting stuff about PASM. Has nobody got any experience of the Bilstein stuff???
I'm in a simimlar position at 65k miles, and new bushes have made a big difference.
