I am very happy with these shocks. Beating the crap out of them in a city that has potholes and roads that would swallow a Smartcar.
Pros: very happy

I had Bilsteins on my 2007 ranger when I bought it new from the dealer. I replaced them at around 93k miles, with more Bilsteins of course. I would recommend them if it is in your budget
Pros: would recommend them
Vehicle:
Ford Ranger
Mileage: 149669 km
I've just installed 5100s at all four corners. The new shocks nicely compliment my rear anti-sway bar and upgraded front anti-sway bar. My truck handles nice and flat on curves of all kinds.
Pros: handles nice and flat
Cons: loud groan when maneuvering
I replaced all four shocks/struts with Bilsteins, reusing the Tein springs. This time the setup is awesome. Much improved handling and ride.
Pros: improved handling and ride
Vehicle:
Mazda
Had 4600s on my 93 k1500, and they were great until they wore out.
Pros: great performance
Cons: wore out
Vehicle:
Chevrolet
I've been impressed with the set of Bilsteins I have on my truck, and they're reasonably priced too.
Pros: reasonably priced, impressive
The R also still had factory shocks and also needed to be replaced, so I went with Bilstein HD shocks all around. The HD's had awesome reviews and were cheaper than the Koni FSD shocks.
Pros: awesome reviews, cheaper price
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
As an FYI, my car is lowered on VWR (almost twice the drop of driver gear) and has Bilstein B8 shocks as well, no other mods aside from the. I had zero problems with a Hunter drive-on alignment rack, and my tech was able to set the alignment to proper spec w/o issue. Car drives great.
Pros: Car drives great
Today it took me a very long time to install the rear bilsteins. I kept thinking I was missing nuts and washers.

I had Bilstein HDs on my 2003 Weekender, but finally decided the ride was too rough for me and switched them out for regular Bilsteins.
Pros: Quietest and smoothest ride
Cons: ride was too rough
Mileage: 120000 km
