Hey,

I need to get struts and shocks, I will be using Ford B springs, not much of a drop. I also want a little better handling but want to retain ride quality, also not doing any crazy driving or autocross. The KYB stuff in summit is like $185 for all 4 pieces, are they ok? I know Koni, Bilsteen are the best way to go, but do I need that or can I get some nice closer to stock ones, Any recomendations?

Thanks

They're a simple factory replacement. They are new so you will feel a ride quality difference.

$185 for both shocks and struts? If so, i need to check those out.

I priced them from summit. If I was doing hard driving I would go for at least Konis', but just better than stock should be fine for me.

Dang i'm kind of liking this! I'm in the same boat as you...just wanting something a tad better than stockers, but at a great price.

I'm glad you posted this lol.

Well the one is. The bottom one is correct, but the top one is a gas adjust, they have the matching GR2 shock for $33.

Yep, i see that now thanks. That price is really unbelievable. I wonder how these would compare to Tokico shocks and struts.
