Do Bilstein front inserts need snubbers like a Koni?
Front Bilstein Sport strut inserts were in my car when I bought it. Pulled them out to be revalved and noticed there were no snubbers in them. Factory struts and Koni inserts all use snubbers. Should these Bilsteins too.

What are snubbers? Are they the rubber bumpers on the shaft? If so, mine have them as well as my spares.

Yes, bump stops are supposed to be there.
