Rear shock recommendations V8 R51
Hi all - looking to replace the rear shocks at some point this year and looking for input on brands / manufacturers that you all have experience with. This is a 2011 V8 LE model that is 99% of the time driven on pavement for general commuting. The other 1% of the time it's on gravel/dirt logging trails accessing fishing holes but not enough to warrant a lift or anything like that. Just looking for the best combination of value, longevity, and ride quality. Thanks in advance!

Re: Rear shock recommendations V8 R51
Some research suggests Bilstein, KYB (OEM manufacturer?) or Z1 are all quality options.
Not looking for a huge lift out of these, though I understand replacing sagging old parts may result in a modest lift. Any feedback on what to expect from which parts is much appreciated. Thanks!
