I’ve run both and they definitely exist for different reasons! My 280E was lowered with the HDs, and my 300D’s have all run comforts. It sounds like you want the comforts, and they are amazing for sure. Smooooooth ride, makes for lovely cruising.

Pros: Smooooooth ride, lovely cruising
Cons: feel the bumps

Everest Tremor gets uprated suspension which comprises a 26mm lift. Along with new springs, larger Bilstein shock absorbers – with position-sensitive damping and piggyback-style external reservoirs

Pros: uprated suspension, larger shock absorbers
Vehicle: Ford

I had both back to back on an e46 M3 autocrosser and the Bilstein was better all round, street & ‘track’.

Pros: better all round, street & track
Vehicle: BMW

Having used both in Street class, I feel like the Bilstein is the answer unless you're a knob turner. They have more compression generally than Koni, but will ride a bit harsher on the street because they're monotube instead of twin tube. The former is typically more performance oriented.

Pros: more compression, performance oriented
Cons: harsher ride on street
Vehicle: Toyota MR2

I like bilstien myself. Their shock valves tend to be well done. We run B6 on our c5 and it’s great. Very controlled a the comes. And in street my wife daily drives it and finds the ride very good with summer tires

Pros: shock valves well done, very controlled, good ride
