Eibach pro truck stage 2 R

Thinking of getting the Stage 1 kit. Is it a good kit? Compares to 6112/5100? They are about the same price range but the Eibach offer 2 rear coils.
6112's are starting to move into the more serious offroad area. If that is your gig then I would consider them over the Eibachs. Generally people run the 5160's in the rear with those. They don't add anything except cooling from the reservoirs over the 5100's. They are about equivalent to the Eibach Reservoirs. If none of that means anything to you then I would just go with which ever you can get cheaper.
 
Stage 1 is great!
Two rear coils..or two rear Shocks?
I believe Eibach only has one +1" rear coil.
I mean compares to 6112/5100 kit (No rear coils, only shocks), it offers rear coils too. But I think 6112 shocks is better than the shocks in stage 1.

I like that the Eibach kit comes with rear coils, so I can get about a 1-inch lift in the rear. However, I know the Bilstein 6112 shocks are better than the shocks included in the Eibach Stage 1 kit. In terms of ride quality, I actually prefer Eibach.

The prices are almost the same, but if I have the shop install everything, the rear coils will probably add a bit more labor cost. So I’m kind of torn between the two.

What is the weight rating on the coils? You may not want them.
