    llo everyone,

    I recently purchased a set of B4600 rear shocks for my 2007 SR5. The front shocks are Monroe front quick-strut and were changed not too long ago. I'm now considering replacing the rear coils as well when I take the vehicle to shop for rear shock change and am currently looking into the Moog-81045 and Bilstein B12 (36-281817). However, I'm unsure which would be the better choice, or if there's another option available that won't cause a height imbalance with the front and isn't more expensive than the Bilsteins. I would appreciate any advice or recommendations!

    Thank you!

    I use the vehicle for city driving. Will the lift give me any benefit? Or should I stick to a spring with no lift? Also will the 4600 shock support the lift without any issues? Thanks!
