I am sure I missed this in the search somewhere! I have a 2023 Rebel GT I want to level so I can eventually put bigger tires on it. My thought at this point is to use my current springs and just purchase the shocks. Based on your personal usage/opinion, sell me on either the Eibachs or the Bilstein 5100s. Lastly, would this all me to run the metric 34/35s without rubbing? Open to all other constructive opinions/ideas I might not be thinking about. Thanks!!!

Eibach or Bilstein

Both terrific options. Can’t go wrong.
I’ve had both the 5100s and the Eibachs on the same truck. Both are better than stock.
Note: I have the coilover version of the Eibachs, not the one that re-uses the stock spring. So I can’t say for certain about those.
But assuming both Eibachs have a similar character, I’d ask this:
- Do you like to “feel” the road?
- Will you be doing more spirited driving / corner carving?
- Which is more important to you: responsive handling or comfortable & compliant ride?
