The B8 Performance Plus line is tuned for use with aftermarket lowering springs, helping restore proper damping control after ride height changes while supporting sharper steering response and more composed body control. The monotube construction helps maintain consistent performance under repeated suspension movement, making it a practical choice for street-driven performance setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis part cross-references Monroe Shocks \u0026amp; Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat It Helps Address\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcessive bounce after installing lowering springs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced front-end control during cornering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft or underdamped ride quality on lowered suspension\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUneven damping response from worn OE shocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoss of suspension precision on a Mercedes-Benz C300 front setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstall 24-241328 on the front of 2015-2021 Mercedes-Benz C300 models only. This shock uses a stem upper mount and clevis lower mount, so verify mount style and suspension configuration before installation.
