Are the Z-28 DSSV struts/shocks any good? No one has mentioned those yet.

Based on my limited knowledge, DSSV type shocks are where it's at but you'll pay a hefty premium. I suspect you'll also need the Z28 springs too as the Z28 shocks are built for/designed around such spring rates.

Haven't installed them yet, so I can't say. But I'm willing to bet that they will still make some noise whenever the wheels drop off a gap due to the design

Another vote for Pedders SportsRyders...installed these with BMR 1.4" springs and it looks nice and handles/rides nice. I did also install upgraded BMR sway bars so that also helped with the decreased body roll.

I can’t freaking take it anymore. The ride on my car is going to make me hate it. It’s like a freaking pogo stick on some roads but still stiff so I don’t think the shocks are worn out at 58k miles. The Bilsteins are still unavailable and I don’t want coilovers. Are the 1LE shocks going to be the best route at this point? I hate charging things but at this point I’m going to have to do it.

Depends what your goals are...I have the 1LE setup and like it. Since you have a 2011 you could go with the updated SS 2012-2015 shocks/struts as they are actually an upgrade over the 2010-2011 setup.

I’ll see if anyone has commented on the 2012 upgrade. I think I read somewhere it was a good fix to the crappy ride.
