    I'm getting 882's put on my 5100's today. I had alot of ppl tell me to go with the 882's over eibach. Plus wheelers said they'd work and ride great. Does anyone have this set up, if so how does it ride? Thanks guys.

    A lift, some wheels, some tires, some performance, some cosmetic and then audio.
    There are tons of people who are running OME with 5100's and there is a reason why.

    5100's with eibachs. And 255/85/16 km2s
    Don't wanna jack your thread here but I just bought the 5100's for mine and I haven't decided if I want the eibachs or the 882's. Do the 882's give the same lift as the eibachs?

    Reports said Eibach will get more then 3" so if you are a 4wd your CV will hate you. And the reason why is people swear by OME with 5100's that's why they buy them.

    Lift is on and I'm very happy. Ome and 5100's are very smooth. But I now do feel very bumper in the road.
