Shock absorbers Bilstein or Rancho

I went with the b6 on my 08 boxster s it really firmed up the ride

I like bilstien myself. Their shock valves tend to be well done. We run B6 on our c5 and it’s great. Very controlled a the comes. And in street my wife daily drives it and finds the ride very good with summer tires

I personally have Bilstein 4600 shocks, and they're pretty smooth after break-in.

Put mine on at 90k getting to 125k deep into a Canadian winter, couldn't be happier.

I have b4 shocks for sport suspension, the ride is never harsh, takes hits and potholes very well, but when cruising down a freeway the car is a little busy feeling as in firm/ with a slight jiggle but never harsh if that makes sense

Handles very well on backroads,

I have a 2017 that I did 6112/5160s on and it's hands down my favorite mod.

I really like how my Bilstein 5100s ride. They have different notches in the body for the different height settings from stock to 2.5" lift, iirc. I originally had mine at the stock, but put them one below the top height shortly afterward. Night and day difference in ride quality in both settings over the worn-out stockers.

Billstein 5100s are pretty affordable ($130 each) and will perform better than the stock shocks. They’re pretty much the gold standard for value/performance for most midsize and full size trucks.

Bilsteins obviously are great. My friend put Bilsteins on his and it's a bit stiff for a daily driver without a lift, imo, but you might not have the same problem or might not care as much lol

I’m running Bilstein 5100 + ‘99 tall springs and the ride is a little too rough for my liking.
