Shock absorbers Bilstein or Sachs

I have 6112/5160 with icon leafs and UCAs, love it. Really transforms the truck.

Yes - they are different form the regular golf wagon. 55mm (AT) knuckle vs 50 (golf). definitely go with Alltrack-specific Bilstein B4 or B6 (not just OE replacement).

I ran the MK6 Bilstein B8 set with Eibach Sportline springs on my MKV and loved the setup. Worked great on street and even did quite well on track. I am an older guy (less tolerant of a rough ride) and they were great.

Go with Bilstein 4600 like others said, 5100 is too stiff unless you are more loaded down

If it is a true FX4 (later models), it already had some of the best shock absorbers to begin with - Bilstein.

On my 2007 GTI when my stock shocks went I paired the Eibach springs I had used with the stock shocks with a set of Bilstein B6's and it was literally perfection.

How do those ride compared to stock? I just got bilstein 6112s put on mine with SPC uppers and it rides way better than stock even around town.

belstein 4600's are a great stock replacement, they came factory on the fx4 level 2's.

Just go with Bilsteins.

I have had Bilstein HDs on my GLS for a couple years now and I also think they are too soft. Still too much body sway and roll, especially loaded for a trip, in my opinion.
