bilstein 5100s. i installed them myself on the 2016 i owned at the time, made a huge difference in the way the truck handled
I put 5100s on the back yesterday and it already feels a lot better - firmer, more controlled going over angled dips in the road (think of railway crossings or water bars etc), and I am surprised at the reduction in roll / wallow.
I also love my bilstiens, mine are definitely more stiff for daily driving, but I prefer mine off road.
H&R sport springs 40mm, Bilstein B8s.
Yes it really is cheap but I really recommend slurging for the Bilstein oe replacement shocks.
I’ve been happy with the 6112/5160 bilstein combo. I just did it it at about the same mileage 245k. Rides smooth and absorbs bumps pretty well.
My factory shocks were all totally blown and I did replace those with Bilstein 5100. You lose the electronically adjustable shock valving by not replacing with factory but...meh.
I actually did Bilstein 5100 all the way around with .85” lift in front (to “level” out the rake) but kept my rear airbags and did a slight adjustment to the rear ride height sensors for the level. Mine rides great and I like that I still have the self leveling rear.
Shock wise people say great things about bilstein 5100s, but I've got no experience with them.
My E36 always sat higher after starting to use Bilstein shocks. Did NOT replace springs. B4 first and B6 after. Definitely over-damped, car almost disregards the springs and runs on shocks alone.
