    I know people keep saying how great the PRO shocks are, and I'd love to get them. They say the ride is better on road as well as off.

    But at what trade off? If they are softer, do they detrimentally effect high speed on-road maneuvering, such as slaloming in and out of traffic?

    Honest assessment: Are they all that and a bag of chips or not worth the likely $3000 parts and installation labor.

    Thanks, I've read that thread, and it doesn't cover what I'm asking.

    I'm asking if the PRO suspension makes aggressive street driving better, worse, or the same. I don't care about ride comfort, I like to drive the hell out of the truck.

    I do not have the Pro shocks, but from what individuals say about the Pro suspension with aggressive driving is a much better experience than any of the other factory options Toyota offers.
