Key Features
- Bilstein B12 (Pro-Kit) suspension kit with matched dampers and springs
- Monotube damper design for consistent control
- Moderate lowering range of 24-40 mm, depending on application
- Application-specific tuning for fixed-height lowering

Detailed Description
This Bilstein suspension kit is engineered as a complete lowering solution for Mercedes-Benz E320, Mercedes-Benz E430, Mercedes-Benz E300, and Mercedes-Benz E420 applications. The B12 (Pro-Kit) package pairs Bilstein Performance dampers with Eibach Pro-Kit springs to deliver a coordinated ride-height change and suspension response that is tuned for the specific vehicle application. Part number 46-190444 is part of Bilstein's B12 (Pro-Kit) series, which focuses on fixed-height lowering with a moderate drop rather than adjustable ride-height changes. The monotube damper construction supports consistent damping behavior, while the spring and damper pairing helps maintain a cohesive suspension setup for street use.
What It Is Used For
- Reducing factory ride height for a lower stance
- Replacing worn suspension components with a matched kit
- Improving suspension response with application-tuned parts
- Addressing uneven or tired ride quality from aging dampers and springs
- Supporting a more controlled setup for daily driving
