Hey @Stage3Motorsports

Do the Bilstein 4600 come in any other colors than the hideous blue and yellow shown on your website?

Unfortunately, the Bilstein 4600 Series doesn't come in any other colors. These things perform though. If you’re looking for a solid upgrade over stock without messing with your ride height, they’re a killer choice. Smooth on the highway, controlled off-road, and built to last—hard to go wrong with them.

Depending on how you use your truck, we also carry the Bilstein 5100 Series, which is great for lifted setups and off-road performance.

I linked both 4600 & 5100 Bilstein Series above for you to check out. Let us know if you have any other questions, we are here! ?

Black Friday coming and I'm thinking I may pull the trigger.

I think I'm between the 4600 and the Eibach Pro-Truck Sport.

98% on paved roads, a couple forest roads a year. I do have an enclosed cargo trailer at about 5000lbs that I tow fairly regularly.

Price isn't too much of a factor. From my research are the 4600s the better choice for my type of use? (I do kinda dislike the bright yellow...) Better control and better towing than stock without making the ride noticeably firmer?

The 5100 shocks are available for non lifted trucks.

I agree the 5100 front with a 21/4” lift adjustment “ helps to level the truck” if desired. The 5100 rears aren’t adjusted. I bought mine from shocks surplus around 599 bucks and 300 to have the springs “OEM” put on the front struts installed and a 4 wheel alignment. I like them, much better then a puck added to the struts installed the front for height adjustment. I found out about the Black Friday sale because of my previous purchase they sent me a text. Now shopping for my 2500 Denali with a Duramax. Not sure what to get yet but will be shopping again at Shocks surplus. Good luck and no matter what or where you buy them now is a great time to save a couple hundred bucks on a set.
