I put Bilstein’s on my 16. First did the silver ones, forget the model. Those lasted 2 years. Changed those out to the uglier yellow with blue boots last summer. I like the ugly ones better.

Pros: like the ugly ones
Cons: lasted 2 years

I have the bilsteins and have no complaints. Thought they were a quality shock for the money. I really forget that I even have new shocks on the truck which tells me that they are doing their job well. Side note: I go on quite a few adventures with my truck, so the shocks get put through solid testing off road.

Pros: quality shock for money
Cons: none

I use KYB's on beater passenger cars literally all the time because they last a lot longer than Monroe's and honestly they are good quality shocks (they are OEM on Toyotas and most Hondas I believe for a reason).

Pros: last longer, good quality, OEM quality

They're definitely a more budget friendly option so don't expect them to preform like fox or king shocks, for a daily you don't care too much about I'd run them, but for a truck you care about and want more performance out of I'd run Bilstein 4600's

Pros: budget friendly option
Cons: performance not top tier
Vehicle: Ford Ranger

The original shocks were completely shot so I replaced them with Bilstein B6 shocks. The ride feels incredibly stiff on most roads.

Cons: ride feels incredibly stiff
Vehicle: Chevrolet
