Shock absorbers Bilstein or Rough Country

I LOVE the 5100s on my '20 Z71. The Ranchos had almost zero damping. Going over speed bumps at my kids' school used to cause the truck to wallow around for a second or two before settling down. There's none of that now with the 5100s. It really does feel like a different truck. Very planted.

I got a e92 328i with sport suspension, just put some b4s on this summer. Im liking them, think they are a little stiffer than the stock.

when you guys order your bilstein b4's, do you order them for alltrack or SW? i suppose you want them for SW so their not valved for the taller springs on the AT right?

Bilstien. Price for performance can't be beat.

Bilstien’s, just ordered a new set cause my truck is getting bouncy, They’re recommended every 100k.

It might not matter, but those 5100’s are specifically valved for stock springs. I realize people put aftermarket springs on with them, but your best ride is going to be with stock.

I put 5100's on my 2011 SR5, set it at the highest setting on the front with the stock springs. I put TRD springs on the back, which did raise the back a touch. The ride is harsher in the back and much better up front.

I run 5100s one notch up to be closer to level but not nose high when loaded. Factory springs and no complaints.

I did find the b6 to be on the stiffer side. Not full on race car stuff, but definitely "sporty stiff."

They absorb impacts really well, but you're still gonna feel everything.

Im not a fan of Bilstein 5100, they replaced a set of blown rough country shocks on a rig i bought and the ride honestly felt the same to me.
