Probably El Camino Tire, I got mine from there, cheap prices, Chinese tires though, feel almost as sticky as my old Yoko YK520, but time will tell on the durability.

So far they feel pretty good, hook up well, pretty good in the rain, but I don't drive like an ass in the rain anyways. They are noisier than "good" tires though

same thing said for S.Techs with OEM shocks.
im sure they arent that stiff cause they arent even the best shocks made by tokico. if im spend money on shocks, no way its gonna be OEM anymore.

Koni's are like in another class by itself. You wouldnt even need lowering springs with Koni's, they're like the shock versions of coilovers

20mm height adjustment can hardly be compared to full coilovers, but dampening adjustment truly is great. Then again, I keep wondering if it was worth itspending that much on shocks.

too much hassle for me to get adj dampening springs for the rear. I would have to take the rear seats out. thats why i'll use blues. heck im on oem right now so im sure its gonna be a good improvement.

Just incase some of you kids dont go into the black market, anyone have extra set of lowering springs? I don't want too much of a drop, maybe like 2 front 1.7 back?

I think 98-02 accord springs will work also, I don't want a spend a ton and dont want to get cheapies from ebay

Maybe but the faster you drive, they'll hit the car so hard they'll practically disintegrate, making it easier to wash them off.

I feel ya im still holding on to all my cars well so far. I might sell the Durango soon for like 3500 cuz it just sits and runs like shit.

You should rock an old school Irock-Z. I wish I had one. Prob going old school for my next ride, a big RWD V8. Prob a SS, GTO, or Mustang
