Renntech shocks

Anyone install the renntech performance shocks??

Not cheap, but was wondering if it makes a big difference in ride quality on pavement for everyday riding

i've built some (3) incredible G's with them over the last 11 years - the only thing i did not touch was their shocks. i presume it would only make the ride less comfortable than it already is

Our 2nd Gen Performance Shocks for the G-Wagon are actually developed to improve daily drive-ability.

As mentioned on our website:
"...the perfect balance between on-road comfort and off-road performance with our specially designed shocks exclusively for the G-Wagon. These shocks dramatically improve the daily driving comfort and handling around town without sacrificing durability..."

yeah i have no intentions on off-roading. I saw a few different options out there and how it vastly improves the daily driving feel of the G. but before i dropped $5k on some shocks, i wondered how night and day it was.
