Bilstein Is most popular I see and IMO the best shocks on the market. Rubicon express shocks are also made by Bilstein so another option for you. If it were me Ide go with Bilstein any day of the week!

I have the Fox 2.0's and yes on road isn't the best, but it's by no means bad enough not to consider them. Off-road their great. I "accidentally" went off a 2 ft ledge while blasting down a wash and they took it in stride.
