Below are several testimonials we have received over the years. We take pride in providing the best possible service and highest quality products to our customers. Here’s the proof:

Great price, fast shipping... as in real fast, and the man I spoke with on the phone was very friendly. Will order from again when I can afford the rear shocks.

I love the shocks and springs. My 4 runners suspension is so much better now plus it’s levelled. Your prices are awesome and great shipping and customer service.

I received the shocks today. Thank you for the great business and quick shipping! I will strictly be doing my business through you guys from now on! Much appreciated.

Thank you! Worked with Gord, had excellent service including discussions on product selections versus delivery times, etc. Once I made the decision had what I wanted to my doorstep in less time than expected. Nicely done! Very pleased, thank you.

A brief note to let you know how pleased I am with my new Bilstein 4600 front & rear shocks. My 2016 Ford F250 seems to have been transformed into a super comfy – stable ride.

At 120,000 klm. the factory shocks were pretty tired but I had no idea of how bad they were until I installed these new Bisteins.

That’s about it, being pleasantly surprised by the quality of something seems to be rare these days, so thanks.

Just wanted to say this was an excellent experience working with you/your company. I finally had my springs/shocks installed by SEM Motorsport. Tom asked me how I got my Bilsteins and I told him you hooked me up. My car rides amazing now. Cheers!

Clint Simmon

I Ordered Bilstein B8 dampers that were backordered for my Ms6. Warren found me another option and sent them to me as quickly as possible. There was a small hiccup in shipping, but when I let Warren know about my experience, he responded with class and provided me great customer service the whole way through. Deal with Warren.

I have received the shocks and I couldn’t be happier. I’ll be recommending you guys to anyone looking for new shocks. I’ll be purchasing the rear shocks soon just have to wait till next payday haha. Thanks again!

Ben Clark

I really appreciate the way you guys handled this situation as I know what the “book” says, but it didn’t match the original shocks on my motorhome. It was certainly a pleasure doing business with you folks and hope to do it again someday.

Bruce

I GOT MY SHOCKS YESTERDAY AND THEY ARE IN EXCELLENT SHAPE, THE PACKING BOX DID NOT HAVE A MARK ON IT SO WAS VERY HAPPY. THIS SPEAKS WELL FOR THE SHIPPING COMPANY AS WELL. RESPECTFULLY

Hi Warren,Just a note to let you know the Bilstein shocks have arrived and look great!Thanks also for your quick replies. Best Regards,

Mike

Well, your advice was right regarding your product! (H&R Sport Spring and Bilstein Sport Shocks) We are very impressed by the quality of the ride when you go slow in the city and the handling at high speed is… driving nirvana! Thank you very much.

Gordon I received my shocks today! Wow that is exceptionally fast service! …I’m sure they are going to be great and Thanks for the excellent service, I’ll be sure to tell all my friends about you and your company.

Tom, The Bilstein shocks have made the S80 the car it should have been in the first place ! My wife, who is stereotypically not as much of a driving enthusiast as myself says that it makes the car handle as well as our BMW 3-series. Pushed hard I am certain that it will still under-steer, and being front-drive it likes to spin an inside wheel while accelerating in a corner – but I was reluctant to even explored that realm with the factory shocks. If the ride has degraded in any way, it is unnoticeable. The float is gone, as is the quiver during cornering. The car feels solid, planted, and much smaller than it did. Thanks for your efforts to import and confirm the fit – well worth the wait!

Bill

“Hi Warren, You were right!! The ride is 100%+ better than before. In town and over there’s no comparison. I’ll be taking on the HWY this weekend and already looking forward to the drive. The boys at Wheels+ did a great job. Good choice – you know your profession well. I’m most grateful.”

Russ

“Shocks are awesome by the way, I’ll be recommending you guys to anyone I can.”

Adam

“I received my Bilsteins today and will be installed tomorrow. Thank you for the service it is a real pleasure to get good sevice from a Canadian outfit!!!! I will leave info on the Nitro site tonight as to where and how Canadian Nitro owners can get a good deal on the shocks and not have to go through the states…Again thank you!”

William

“Thank you for your help and sorry to have insisted so much. It was necessary for us to be able to bring them back from our days in Canada. We are now in Peru and will have them installed soon. Thanks for all your help!”

Francisco Perez de Cuellar

“I received the fronts last week. Thanks very much for the struts! Pleasure doing business with you.”

Daniel

“Just wanted to thank you for the great service. The shocks for my 2001 Trans Am arrived and I installed them no problem. I cannot believe the difference. It honestly feels like a completely different car. Before, the car was following every groove in the road and felt very twitchy. I thought it must be the 40 series tires. Now, the tracking problems are gone and the bone-crushing ride is way smoother. When you told me “smoother but firmer”, I didn’t think it could be possible but it is.”

Roy Saskatoon, Sask

“Thanks I have shopped on alot of performance sites and by far you guys have one of the best set ups and the best customers service keep up the good work!”

Jacob

“I just received the strut. Many thanks, I appreciate the quick service and having you go to bat to convince Bilstein to break up a kit. I will certainly recommend you to others.”

Chris

“Tom, just wanted to say I got my Bilsteins today.Wanted to let you know that my experience with your store was great. I can understand the order backlog–that’s not your fault. (FEDEX even delivered it here to the wrong address…even though the address you put on the waybill was correct!) But you guys delivered–even the Eibach stickers! I’m going to post a glowing review on my.is Lexus users website! Thanks again!”
