    I just had a new set of Bilstein 5100's installed on my 2013 Tacoma Super White 4x4, and I wanted to post my results. They are set at the second lowest of the four settings at 0.85. While it is a slight adjustment I can personally see a difference in ride height and I think it just about leveled it out perfectly.

    I purchased the Bilsteins online for $185 including shipping. I paid Midas for install and alignment and was charged $205.

    First photo is before.
