yet another Bilstein question

I looked around and couldn't find an answer to this...besides the option of lifting 2" are there any differences between the yellow and silver Bilsteins? I've already got a 2" AS and don't need the adjustability in the shock, but like the silver color better Guess I'm trying to find out if getting the silvers and leaving them at 0 adjustment yields a better/worse/equal shock vs the yellows.

The yellows have a softer ride vs the silvers (5100's) I think?. Silvers boot down

i believe they are the same shock. the silver ones are just longer for lifted trucks. yellow boot down on the back shocks....

I believe the 5100s are geared more towards offroad. .
