Default bolts
Hopefully get around to fitting my coilovers soon so will be changing all the bolts.
Been down Citroen and some of the bolts for the rear have been discontinued so will be going down my local bolt shop.

Should I stick to 8.8 or get 10.9?

8.8 I'd say 10.9 would be too brittle. But that's just my opinion

no bolt will be too brittle
the rating is its tensile strength --so a 10.9 will be stronger not more brittle
why would anybody make a bolt that was brittle ??

I have personally replaced most bolts on mine with 10.9grade including the roll cage I had which was a bolt in dash dodger.
