Default Elkas or for adjustable remote res?

what do u guys suggest - the teraflex tuned elkas or the adjustable fox's that are not tera tuned? i currently have a 2.5 tera coil lift and spend most of my time crawling rather than doing anything highspeed. i would like solid offroad performance but but also want a little more comfort for norcals crumbling road system.


im also considering the aev tuned bilstiens and tera tuned non adjustable fox. if anyone has herd anything about these that would also be great


......also if im not doing anything super high speed, am i really going to have 3x better ride quality in comparison to a 5100 or an ome.

thanks

What coils are you running? I ask because I believe they are a largeer part of ride quality than shocks. I recently got some Elka's and really like them. Paired with the Evo Plus Ride Coils I cannot believe how smooth my JK rides now.

Shocks alone will do ZERO for your ride quality. I out my Elka's on expecting the world to change, and I honestly didn't even notice they were there because my coils were so shitty. Don't know what they were, but I swapped them out with the Evo ones as I said before.

If you already have the TF coils then either one will be a nice addition.
