450 rear shock recommendation

need advice on rear non ads rear shocks, the oem ones we have now dont have boots protecting the shock rod, the bilsteins do, 2 dealers cant give me an answer on if the oem shocks have boots or not, think boots are important. is there any difference in ride between oem and bilstein? can get a set of oem or bilsteins for less the 500 online. so not to worried about either brand. bilstein has a good warranty, so leaning that way but just concerned about ride, thanks
