    Personally, I am sold on the OME quality. Here's spec for 6112 and OME front shocks (and 5100 for comparison).

    OME:
    Extended length: 26.02"
    Collapsed length: 15.39"
    Travel: 10.63

    The Bilstein 5100s are
    Extended: 24.8"
    Collapsed: 15.33"
    Travel: 9.47

    Bilstein 6112
    Extended 25.69
    Collapsed 15.22
    Travel: 10.47

    For the rear shocks, OME shocks have 1 inch more travel than Bilstein 5100.

    275/70/18 on 5100's @ mid setting , Good to go:thumbsup:
    295/70/18 on 2.5/1 OME , shouldn't be a problem if you have aftermarket wheels with + 12 minimum or 1 1\4" spacers. :thumbsup: :popcorn:

    I have the Readylift 3/1 on a 2014 crewmax right now. I want to replace the OEM with some Bilsteins. Should I go 5100/5160? TIA

    The 5160 don't offer any lift by themselves. I did the 6112s on the front, 1.9in setting, stock rear end,and its perfect level.

    I’m going to install the 5100 kit and wondering what is the largest tire everyone is running without rubbing? I don’t want to do any trimming. I will set the front at the highest setting. Wheels are fast wheels mammoth 20mm offset

    Hi guys has anyone had any issues with circlip failure with the 5100’s and what did you use to move your clip into different positions?

    I ordered 6112s for the front, and 5160s for the rear about a month ago. I got my shipping notification earlier this week, and they're supposed to be on my door step tomorrow (June 8)
