You telling us that for every 100 miles you drive, 20-30 of them are off-road? Is this your daily driver? How far do you commute every day?

either
im going with rize.
CST is alot more expensive and you dont get any shocks
the rize right now if you order before all the dealers run out you get rear bilstein 5150 reservoir shocks, if you wait your going to get white body shocks like the ones on the fabtech.
the rize has the looks also, and has been engineered amazingly from what everyone has to say about it.

Yeah 20-30 miles of my rise to work is offroad (i wish)
. What i really meant that 20% of total use (too me that doesnt mean a whole lot). I dont drive it too much cause between that my STi, and my dads truck (we siwtch on and off everyday) It doesnt get drivin too much. I do drive it more than my car. I also want to try to keep as good of a ride as i can.

the bilstein 5150s are nothing special. good shocks but they dont ride any better than the 5100s. you can get 5150s for 100 a piece on offroadwarehouse.com . . not a big deal at all
you dont get front shocks with the RiZE either. both will extend your stock struts unless you upgrade the kit
the CST is a very offroad oriented kit. RiZE is a great product and will go very far. unless you are very serious with your offroading the RiZE will be a great choice on and off the pavement

As long as there wont be a problem with the stock struts being extended, then it wont matter to me. Just mean it will ride close to stock. I am not a hardcore offroader so it would be more for looks than the trails. Some offroading like driving out on the beach or down trails.
