Default Bilsteins Or Old Man EMU Nitros?
I have a 2013 2D that I'm going to put a Tera flex leveling kit on. I will put some aftermarket shocks on soon. Would you go with the Bilsteins or Old Man EMU Nitros?

Thanks!

You'll most likely get a 50/50 feedback on both. I ran a set of the Bilstein 5100's, they performed great all around.

I agree. I run the Ome shocks. You prob. Wont be able to tell the difference unless you change the springs also. I have an Ome lift and like the shocks because they have a hard dust cover.
