Default Bilstein shocks for my '87

It's time to replace shocks on my '87 autocross car and I have been looking at the VBP Xtreme Bilsteins and the "Z51" shocks from VanSteel.

What's the difference in these two? Besides the dollar difference.

Default Rebuild Them

Bilstein offers a rebuilding service. They can build a custom shock for your car. They've done mine several times. Every time I change springs I get them rebuilt.

You get an improved product and it's cheaper than buying a new one off the shelf. Plus, you also get the dyno sheet with the rebuilt shocks.
