It's hard to go wrong with bilstiens, if you have the money for them I think you'll be happiest with them over cheap shocks. I've had cheapies, RS9000s and my bilstiens and the bilstiens are brand of choice.

Do most of you guys run the 5100's or the 4600's?

Bilstein good for me

Recent installation on all four corners. Handling big improvement. Time will tell if there is a savings on tire wear. Ride doesn't seem to be any better riding empty. Towing a fifth wheel seems improved as to handling an control.
Overall good decision however Bilstein should have some color options.
lol Blue and Yellow. YUK!
