Ride Comparison - Performance Elite 2.5 vs. Performance 2.0 Shocks » ACADEMY | FOX

[@pinkpotato1]

It would be good if comparisons between shocks were made with the same springs, wheels and tyres. Larger tyres and large softer springs could be helping the vehicle a lot in these videos.

Which one is best for pot holes and constant bad roads?

Not a true comparison with different speeds going thru the course, and are they comparing 2.0 resi vs 2.5 elite

Fox 2.5 are terrible if you do any daily driving on them no matter what setting you put them on.

Have you experienced this yourself? I want to know because I'm getting mixed information. I too do not want a harsh ride on the street where over 95% of my driving takes place. I currently have a 2020 Silverado 1500 with the Z71 and Rancho Shocks and the handling is horrible and the truck bounces so bad over a dip it's almost dangerous. I'm trying to find the best solution and the 2.5 Elites are one of the shocks I was considering switching to but I don't want a harsh ride on the street. The roads where I live are bad enough with the many seams and irregular pavement due to decades of the city patching the roads instead of repaving them.

@@DucDNA yes, first hand, actually took a huge hit and got rid of it cause I had no parts to put it back stock. Fox and BDS assured me the many calls I made to them it would be smooth daily driver. Called after and they changed their tune to no it is a sport ride. Worst experience of my life and after this I will never modify a daily driver again. I also got mixed info from other ppl on forums too.

@@1613ckhris Thank you for sharing your experience. I think I'll pass on the 2.5 Elites because I'm not desert racing or doing overland trips, I just need a solution to the bouncy Ranchos but it seems coilovers are not the best option for my needs.
