I had 5100s last year and found them a little on the firm side. My understanding is that the 5160s are the same or slightly firmer. I now have fox 2.0s and freakin love them. Took about a week to soften up just like i was told by bds guy. Yes mine are BDS tuned fox 2.0. Very smooth and happy with the switch

I run 5160s and they are definately on the firmer side so if this isnt something you are looking for, then 5160s are not the way to go. I have never ridden in a Fox equiped JK so I cant comment on them.
