KYB GR2 Shocks?

[jcun360]

I found a set of these shocks brand new that i want to use with my intrax lowering springs i just bought. My question is are they worth the 150 and will it ride better if i put the on my car? thanks

all 4 brand new for 150? if it was me, i would jump on that deal

Honestly, I would save up more. GR2's are pretty much replacement struts for OEM springs. If you were on a Pro-Kit drop, they'd be perfect, but they're just not much stronger than your factory pieces as far as being able to withstand any sort of drop.

I'd look into the Tokico Blues (HP) if you want a good budget shock. The AGX are worth the money too.

Thats what i was thinking, but then i found the same set on ebay brand new for about 160 shipped and everything.

I got GR2s and 2.25 drop on springtech springs and my ride is pretty good for the price. I dont bounce around and handles very well in corners/turns. I like them , cant ask for more for the money.

imo they r pretty much just oem replacements, any drop over 1.75" i'd recommend something stronger, which of course is pricier. so if u wanna slam a car and have a nice stiff ride, its gonna cost ya. i'd go for the illuminas, i think theyre good for their price.. if ure feelin like a baller, koni yellow HD =).. good luck i had gr2 with my neuspeed sport.. felt alright, couldve been better tho

My buddy has GR-2's with pro-kit, the ride quality is very good, better than stock IMO, but with intrax springs, i think it would be ok as well, u can get away with them, but the life expectancy for the shocks will be lower because they are not designed for such a low drop. but if i were u, grab them if funds are low and thats a pretty good deal

[jcun360]

the drop is only about 1.5 all around. I'm still trying to talk the guy down to 130 but he's holding it at 150...

are these brand new? if u want i have my old kyb GR2's with stock springs & a set of Neuspeed RACE springs, shocks are used and there old. but the springs are in excellent condition.

[jcun360]

thanks but i have a set of H&R springs already. i think i'll just save up and get some tokico blues, a friend of mine has them with h&r springs on his hatch and it rides pretty smooth.

If you really want some KYB's just get the AGX's. They are more expensive, but they are adjustable and a lot better.
