    OME will be more softer ride as is a different type of shock as bilsteins. They will give you a much better ride on washboard roads!!
    Bilsteins will be stiffer as more of a rebound type shock..will be stiffer on washboards..
    @HeadStrong Off-Road is where I bought my suspension.
    You can get a complete kit. Bilsteins with 886 coils will be good for added steel bumper or winch. You can get the heavy leaf springs if you are running a tent. If you need heavier then you can still add a leaf or airbags.
    I didn’t have a tent or steel bumper, but I still added wheeler’s bump stops..
    If washboard roads, then a complete OME with 886 coils and heavy leafs would be good and you can still go over rocks as well..

    They may or may not give you a softer ride which is a matter of opinion, but ome springs will sag which is a fact.b It's a known issue, also headstrong knows this!
