Default Pro Comp 6" or Evo Coil Over?

Which way would you go? Any reviews for the pro comp? Looks like the full Evo system is about 6 g's.

Go evo coilover. I have no experience with the Pro Comp but I have heard bad things about their Jeep stuff. For what it's worth. Hope you get more specific answers!

No direct experience with either one, but based on years of knowledge and reading of reviews on several forums, I would not put these two lifts in the same catagory on any level. If you can afford EVO, go with EVO. If not, do a lot more research before making a selection. There are several 6 inch lifts out there with great reputations.

Yes, ORE coilovers on all 4 corners are about 6k, but you may want to start with only the front
pair first, which is what I did. Getting the rears installed tomorrow. When I first got the JK,
I had the Skyjacker lift, which I did not like. Then went with the 3" full flex Teraflex, which I
really liked. Now coilovers. If I had it to do over, would have STARTED with coilovers from
day one!!

Exactly right, these two lifts are totally different.

No comparison between the 2 lifts. If you have the money go EVO..... if you dont have the money I would go with a 6" lift other than Pro Comp.

as mentioned, there is no comparison between the two. the EVO coilovers are in a league of their own and even when it comes to standard lift kits, pro comp is a low end model.
