I just completed the same upgrade and I concur it’s like a brand new car.
Pros: like a brand new car
I ran Bilstein 4600s for a few years, then swapped to Bilstein 5100s with a 2\" spring lift. They are firm, but work very well.
Pros: work very well
Cons: firm ride
i get about 4” of lift with the OME 884 on bilstein 5100s on my V6 with no weight. even though it’s advertised as 2.5”
Pros: 4 inch lift
I did a suspension replacement in late November with the same Bilstein 5100s and the stock springs to level the 4runner and I love how they immediately improved my ride
Pros: improved my ride
Vehicle:
Toyota 4runner
Why don’t you just replace the shocks if that’s all that’s blown? Go with stock size OEM or Bilsteins if you’re not looking for a lift
I installed the Bilstein B6 shocks. I can happily report back that not only has handling improved noticeably, but the real shocker is that the ride quality also improved significantly. It's much smoother on broken pavement despite also being much tighter and flatter, so the car is both more comfortable AND more sporty. The difference in ride quality was night-and-day on horrible roads. Even on OEM springs it is a vast improvement and seems perfectly matched. Be aware it slightly lifts the car about 1/2 inch.
Pros: improved handling, smoother ride, more comfortable, more sporty
Cons: slight car lift
I put Bilstein on the front of my BMW and KYB on the rear and the car drives like a new one.
Pros: car drives like new
Vehicle:
BMW
I run Bilstein 5160’s on my 22 F250 but they’re pricey.
Cons: pricey
Vehicle:
Ford
Had my local shop install some OEM style Bilsteins in my truck, the shocks that come with the higher trim level, no lift or anything. This is what they sent me home with after the top not started backing off.
Cons: top nut backing off
