I have an Alltrack with GTI springs and B4s. It's well controlled but doesn't take as hard a set when cornering as the Koni's I had previously. I got tired of replacing the koni struts and they were too firm for the wife so the B4's were an easy choice.

Pros: well controlled
Cons: doesn't take hard set
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Bilstein 4600 at a minimum. Quality shocks make too big of a difference, you definitely get what you pay for.

Pros: quality shocks, big difference
Cons: shitty ride
Vehicle: Ford
Part number: 4600

I had 6112s on my 3rd gen 4R and it drove awesome and felt planted (for a lifted truck). When I bought my 470 it came with 5100s already installed. It feels comparatively tippy/sloppy.

Pros: drove awesome, felt planted
Cons: tippy/sloppy

I have 6112 up front with 5100s for the rear. I have upgraded the springs that net me ~.5” lift after adding the RTT, etc. rides great - highly recommend.

Pros: rides great, highly recommend

“Upgraded” to Bilstein 4600s with 99’ springs not too long ago and they’re way too rough. You can feel just about every bump in the road and it’s extremely jarring and uncomfortable.

Cons: rough, jarring, uncomfortable
