Ohlins race stuff for cars and MC is a really great product. No doubt about it.
When Ohlins got into competition on the more freindly budget side with Bilstein and KW, they missed the mark IMO... Your opinion may vary. We have installed the R/T on everything from 997/987 to E46 BMW and never felt there was a good match between spring rates and shock valving... again, your opinion may vary. For what it is worth, I think they should have stuck with race/high performance stuff. Also not sure where the R/T stuff is manufactured if that matters to someone. Cheers

Guess we’ll find out! The Mazda community seems to believe the Ohlins are better than Bilstein and KW are overpriced. That’s coming from guys like Jeff Goodwin that have pretty well known race and performance shops.

They, Ohlins, may well have nailed that chassis well. We have ZERO experience on that car with Ohlins....
 Cheers
