What shocks are you using with vogtlands?

What's your feelings/thoughts about shocks with the vogtland springs? I'm going to replace my Boge's.

I'm running Bilstein HD's all around.... got the Vogtlands in a couple months after the group buy but she sat for over a year as the timing chain snapped a week after suspension rebuild - on the way for final alignment after putting staggered 16's from a late model SLK (didn't know they were staggered until I got them but found a way with small H&R spacers to make it work). I put sport rubber all around, too. Problem is that I have nothing really to compare it to other than the prior suspension with est. 600k miles on it. I replaced everything at the same time incl. tie rod ends, idler arm, ball joints - all the way down to the guide rod mounts. It rides like a brick s%$&* house on railroad steel. It is stiff and tight. But I like it.
