Well... I'm running Rough Country 2.2 that came with my kit and just like the name, they are a bit rough. Apparently Blistein 5150 are the Miles Davis of shocks and what I will probably upgrade to.

Spend a little more on bilsteins. I had RCs front and rear and got a set of bilsteins. No comparison between the two. Bilsteins are a lot smoother on and off road and you can valve them however you like
