I can't say whether they are better than Bielsteins or not. What I can say is that the ones I've been running for the last 18 months are very nice. I got them with the Rancho 4" Sport Lift during the $500 rebate period. I love my 4" sport lift. It's perfect for my purposes. Rancho is having the Shock and Awe Rebate again this year and they have added some more complete lift kits that include control arms. You might consider looking into one of those and possibly saving yourself $500 for something else.

Good luck.

I have them, but can not compare them to anything else.
But I have knocked 3 of the adjustment knobs rock crawling.
They are 14 bucks each. I've only played with the adjustments 2 times.
Mine are set at 5 in the front and 7 in the back.

My buddy who sells off-road parts says just get the bilsteins.
