Ive got Bilstein 5100s on my 99 with 4 inches of lift. Drives like a 20 year old truck instead of a 25 year old truck :)

Pros: improved driving experience
Vehicle: Chevrolet

I got a pair of the 3100 Bilstiens in my 1995 K1500, the old ones WERE STOCK FROM THE DAMN FACTORY, I replaced them and gave me about an inch of lift and drives like something else, I highly recommend them, plus they come with stickers to slap on your window or the tailgate

Pros: improved driving, inch of lift
Vehicle: Chevrolet

I've always just run Monroe gas-matics but currently have Billsteins on my Suburban. They're a stiffer ride and more expensive but are durable.

Pros: durable, stiffer ride
Cons: more expensive
Vehicle: Chevrolet Suburban

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 tried the 034's as well, had Bilstein B8's with MSS kit adjustable springs. Broke the top stud off the B8's and when I sent them to Bilstein for warranty they blamed the stiffer upper strut bushing.

Cons: broke top stud
