I've been really happy with my Bilstein 5100 shocks and OME heavy load springs with all of my added armor weight. After I picked up a trackbar correction kit and got my geometry right the rig rides better than any new truck!
I just put a set of Bilsteins on my 2016 GMC Acadia, and oh man, what a difference!
I think the billstein 5100 and 5150 are great. After the first set I bought, I've run nothing else.
Bilstein 4600 for a stock road Jeep. Not quite as squishy as a nitro shock like OME, but a significant upgrade over stock in both comfort and control.
Bilsteins have always been my go to. Nice and Sturdy at high speeds. Worst shocks I’ve had on my jeep were rough country
i have the bilstein b8 on my other car which is lowered sport dampers they are super comfortable and sporty
Just put in some new Bilsteins last week.
I went with Blistens 6112s and 5161s and have been pleased. A nice compromise between price and ride quality.
Ended up swapping the fronts for 5100’s, while for my drive style they handle exactly as i need them too it’s a lil harsh for me on the smaller bumps so i’m debating on going with a coilover or the next option up from bilstein
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.
