Best Shock with OME 882

I'm researching the different shock options to use with the 882's other than the OME n91's due to issues with overextending and breaking CV's. What other shocks have people run the 882's with? I was considering the 2004 Tacoma Double TRD blue bilsteins which people have used with the TRD Tundra coilovers and another possibility is the Bilstein 5100, but some have stated that this is valved too softly. Other than those two choices, I haven's seen too many other options

I went with OME's N91SC front shock. It's the comfort valved shock and gives a livable ride up front. OME also makes the N91S, which is a firm valved shock and probably too harsh for a daily driven rig. One thing to watch with the 882 coils is extended shock length. Stock length shocks will not work as they don't extend enough to work with the coils. And, the OME shocks and coils are designed to work together, so you'll know they fit and work as they should.

I've wheeled my rig hard many times and haven't had a single problem with the CV's over extending or otherwise. Many others are also running the 882/N91SC combination with no problems. That would be my recommendation.
