First impression of my Bilstein 5100's....
 
I like them :-)

Definately stiffer. It wouldn't bother me if they loosened up just a tiny bit, as they break in... but if they stayed exactly the same, I could live with that too.

After getting them installed yesterday afternoon, along with the 2" lift setting on the front's, I drove it away from the shop, and immediatly started aiming for some "lumps and bumps" :-)
No doubt about it.... any kind of bouncing was greatly reduced. Another thing we should consider, is that it would be one thing if I were going from old, worn out factory shocks, to brand new after markets..... But my factory shocks were brand new, and I could still feel a big improvement ! Plus, I expect my Bilsteins to last a lot longer than my factory ones would have.

That 2" lift looks sweet too !

Pretty stoked with them :-)
