KYB AGX vs KYB GR2

i won't be tweeking my ride settings too much...i pretty much want a stock feeling ride and the GR2's are quite a bit cheaper to my understanding.

Anyone else have the GR2's? I already know the AGX's are the sh!t and tons of u got them...

i'm looking to pair it with an eibach prokit btw...

Definately get the AGXs They are worth the cash. The Mistress loves her legs. They are nice and stiff cause I set 'em that way.

Peace...and all that.

GR-2''s and the pro kit is a good all around setup. This is what I have now and have no problems. The drop is nice also. What springs do you have?

This question has been asked over 30 times. Get AGX's so in case you want to lower your car in the future, you won't have to buy shocks again. = 4 cents

I dont think anyone here has had a long term experience with either of the shocks you mentioned. Ive only had my gr-2's for a little over a month. You have to ask yourself if you want adjustable or not, thats the main thing.

If you really want a longer lifespan on AGX's I suggest you SLAM the car
to the pavement.

I have had the agx's on for about 2 years. If I had the choice to do it again, I would have gone with the gr2's. I don't really care to adjust them all the time and I don't autox or race so high performance handling is not really needed. The gr2's improve handling and still give a stock comfort ride, the way that the agx's do on a low setting, which is what I ride on all the time. For a cheaper price, they are more practical. With a pro-kit drop, it seems like the perfect match.
