I got them on my 97 Yukon and they do not off-road too terribly well, and feel too soft. I bottom out and bumps and they’re only like a year old.

Cons: feel too soft, bottom out

My suspension progression has been S-line stock -> Euro S-line springs on stock dampers -> Bilstein PSS10 -> Ohlins R&T with Euro springs. I did like a lot of aspects of the Bilsteins, but they are just a little too harsh for me on uneven pavement around town

Cons: a little too harsh
Vehicle: Audi A3

I LOVE the 5100s on my '20 Z71. The Ranchos had almost zero damping. Going over speed bumps at my kids' school used to cause the truck to wallow around for a second or two before settling down. There's none of that now with the 5100s. It really does feel like a different truck. Very planted.

Pros: feels like different truck, very planted
Cons: Ranchos had zero damping
Vehicle: Chevrolet

I just did the 5100's at 2". I also have a +0 offset wheel (this matters). My 275/70R17's rub the mudflap at full turn when entering a driveway.

Cons: rub the mudflap
Vehicle: Toyota
