Bilstein B8s…..by a long shot. You get the lowering support you need and the ride comfort is almost on par with stock ride. Only the worst road hazards are felt.

Pros: ride comfort is good
Cons: worst road hazards felt

Put 5100's on my 2014 to replace the blown out ranchos about 3 years back. Worth it, i reused my existing springs and they mounted without a problem. Ride is awesome and you can get them on amazon.

Pros: ride is awesome
Vehicle: Nissan

I find the 6112s ride a bit better at a slightly higher speed compared to 5100s. Taking rough gravel roads in my truck at 25-30 mph is a little rough, but it surprisingly smooths out around 40-45 mph.

Pros: smooths out around 40-45
Cons: rough at 25-30 mph

I have 6112’s on my third gen and the difference is pretty amazing. My brother has 5100s on his third gen and I would say my truck feels a lot more planted and controlled. Both are a massive difference over stock.

Pros: more planted and controlled

I have Bilstein B8 Performance shock absorbers with Eibach EW 2067001VA springs; on a sedan 2002 530i manual transmission.

Great ride on a perfectly smooth road and stable on the highway at high speeds.

Horrible where I live.

To be honest, I kinda regret installing them.

Pros: stable at high speeds
Cons: horrible ride, expensive
Vehicle: BMW
