I went with the struts over the coil overs for A few reasons. They are very stable on the trail, they don't allow your rig lean over, bounce or unload like a coil or coil over can. I also like the ease of tuneing, I can change the set up on all 4 struts in about 20 minutes. No more swaybars, I have had it 80 on the freeway and it handles better than my old spring and shock set up. I will say that If your jeep is heavy like mine, 5700lbs they require a little higher pressure to preform as intended and that will mean a little rougher ride on the street than most people would like. I have only run them for 2 weeks now so I may still get them tuned out for that but I feel the sacrifice on the road is well worth the performance on the rocks. Here are a few pics from a trail called Die Trying in Montrose last weekend. Here are a couple pics of my friends LJ who is also running ORIs. He has had them for 2 years and his rig weighs 5500lbs. Oh yeah did I mention that they look bad ass too!

Edit. If you plan on going fast (60mph+) in the desert or jumping your rig a lot you would be better off with a coil over.
