Default What brand to replace Rough country shocks with?

My Cherokee has a 4.5" lift with rough country shock and its a pretty rough ride on washboard roads. My friends jeep has a 3.5" lift but with bilstein shocks and it rides way better. I was gonna but Bilstein 5100s or fox 2.0. Has anybody that has used rough country shocks and changed them out notice any dofference in ride quality?

The general consensus around here is Bilstein 5100's. I have a set of 4 NIB ready to go on my XJ...... Unless you plan on competing in the Baja races. Then its probably fox shocks with external reservoirs.
