I haven't used them on the vette, but I had a set on my lowered truck. They were for my application and they were blown out in a year...they didn't even ride or handle any better than the $30 shocks that replaced them.

I plan on ordering a set of bilsteins for the vette soon.

forget about the price, for something that you Drive (as opposed to Race) they are the way to go. Work great, nicest ride of Any of the stuff I've had on My '85 non Z51 car. They've been on there for probably 50k miles now, still look like, and ride like, new.

The fronts are a bit soft on rebound if I wanted to AutoX the car, but otherwise I have No complaints.
