I have B8 5100s in my 4Runner. Off-road or on-road I have never had an issue with them. I thought they were a noticeable improvement over my stock ride in terms of comfort, even with the 2" lift.
My DCC struts and shocks blew out and I was about to bite the bullet and order isweep cancellers along with a set of bilstien b8s. You just saved me $500 and a lot of headache from a less than ideal delete.
I live in CT and went back to stock springs with gas charged sporty shocks on my 84 GTI for the same reason. Car is 10x more fun to drive now IMO. Still sporty I'm running the stock springs with Bilstien in the back
I'm on H&R Sport springs and B8s on my 4Mo GSW - great setup.
I have Bilstein B8s paired with Neuspeed sport springs and would recommend them based on my experience
Stay with HR Sports and get Bilstein 8s, add a GOLF R RSB take off at the same time and have it aligned. You'll have a great setup
I also did the b6’s paired with eibach pro kit, big difference!!
Bilstein shocks and lowering springs, you retain a more comfortable ride whilst getting better handling and making the car a bit lower
I’ve had 5100s and fox 2.0s.
The 5100s are over damped, unless you drive fast as hell or drive your truck like a sports car the fox’s are gonna ride way better
I installed Bilstein B16 DCC shocks/springs. Frankly I hate them. They are not tuned to the chassis well so makes the car pitch over bumps and creak/groan badly
