I tried Rancho RSX's (better than the RS5000's) & Bilsteins on my cc, and the Bilsteins were definitely better.

Re: Shocks......
How long to you plan to keep it? If it is a long term relationship , Bilstein HD shocks are a good investment.
If you trade up regularly, or might need a fullsize next year, any decent aftermarket shock is better than stock.
