Which coils to run with the Bilstein 5100's
Originally, I was planning to go with the Rough Country 2.5" coil lift and adding Bilstein 5100's, as I'm not sold on RC's shocks. After reading lots of threads, I'm now looking at other coils (Rock Krawler, Teraflex, OME, etc...) and adding the Bilstein's to those. Just as a point of reference: this will be going on my '09 JKU daily driver (roughly 10-20% off-road) so it won't be for heavy off-roading by any means. I have Toyo Open Country AT II's in 285/75/17 so nothing too big.
My question is: has anyone purchased 2.5" coils (any brand) and added the 5100's... and were you happy with them? I'm willing to pay more for quality, so I don't mind going with another coil set over the RC if that's a better option. Anyone have any experience with this type of build? Thanks for any insight!

When I get everything installed, I will let you know how she rides.
