These entry level penskes would be as expensive as top of the line Tein SRC's. Atleast.

I wish they were that cheap...

I don't want to sound like a **** but if you are asking about price for these then I would look elsewhere, even the entry level version of these will cost in the "money is not a problem" range... I'm willing to bet that the entry level isn't about making a more affordable option, rather more about satisfying different series regulations :P

So many negative vibes. I'm expecting these bad boys to come in at under $2k!


Yes, I realize I am probably dreaming.

Although I'm assuming Penske would be overkill, I wonder if a road option like the bilstein B6 + B8 would ever come to light. Just a really nicely valved shock for someone who wants THE BEST for their otherwise road car...

Consider their camber plates are $500. That said, I bet these will be worth it. If only I could afford them...

You'll likely need to be somewhere between triple and quadruple of that.

I'll throw my speculation into the ring.


I'll say $900 per corner + mounts.

But the camber plates will now have reduced pricing because they are now bundled with dampers!

I was guessing $800-$900 per corner plus upper mounts as well.

Did you see the price for the raceseng and KW setup? It was dollar for dollar the same as you could get from ft86SF, which had me scratching my head. Why not just say that raceseng is now an authorized dealer of KW and that their mounts can be order together to ensure proper fitment or something along those lines.

Random speculation?!? I'll play.

Cost will be $4,XXX-$1X,XXX depending on configuration.

Safe to say that few people will buy these.
