Bilstein 5100 shocks?

5100 and HD are two separate models.

I run the HD's on my Tahoe. They improve handling, take a good amount of body roll out, but ride like shit even with my stock 16s on. Pretty stiff and rigid. At high speeds they do great, but around town you feel nearly every bump. Will last forever and take a beating though.

Tf......
I love my HDs unconditionally on all road surfaces.... They are amazing and responsive.

Well he does have a 02..

But the rear should be the same?

True. Hmmmm

Ride is perception though.

Ride is very subjective. But i with having a slammed mustang while having the truck and now having a benz i can tell my truck rides alot more like the mustang. Even today small cracks in the road i felt. Id prefer the ride over our trailblazer with worn out factory shocks, but i feel there is probably a better shock for the money for our tahoes. These shocks do excellent towing though! But our stock springs make for some disgusting sag but no sway or mush with the shocks. In the end, it rides like a truck, it is a truck, sacrifices.

Coming from the way my Denali drives id have to say the 900 platform can have completely different reactions to the shocks than my 800 does.
