I've got a set of bilstein 5100's for the front that I will be putting on in the spring. This will probably bump the front back to a near perfect level.. I will be keeping my 2.5 spacer and adding it on top if the adjustable bilstein's. I hear the ride is too stiff with the bilstein's set at the max 2" lift setting..
