    I think it's time for new shocks at 110k miles.
    Are these shocks any good, would they do as well as the OEM shocks and should I get new spring coils as well?

    For a few bucks more, you can wait it out for 5100s.

    Thanks for the input.
    I can do that, but will I have to make any suspension changes to go with the 5100s ? I get lost trying to read all the info on them here. I want to stay stock everything, but I wouldn't mind same as or slight upgrade in shocks as long as I don't need new bump stops, control arms, shimming, add a leaf, or something like that.

    Good deal on shocks that ride better than 5100s, YES.

    Yes these came OEM on my 08 Tundra w/ TRD pkg, pretty good. Another advantage to the 5100 is they have adjustable spring perch which can level out the front end if you like. If not, then the 4600 will be fine.
