I run H&R sport springs with the AGX shocks/struts, it rides smooth on soft setting and it handles good when its on stiff.

im running the kyb gr2 with megan racing springs. the ride is relatively smooth compared with other setups.

they are slightly better than factory and can handle under a 2" drop as long as the spring rates arent too high.

i had agx's on my gsr when i bought it and they were installed in 2001. when i took over tha rears were soft as heeell. looked online at some reviews and people have been saying after about a year or 10,000 miles tha rears keep getting softer and softer even when you continue to stiffen them. just my experience. replaced them with tein basics and i love them

KYB GR-2 shocks are meant to be a stock replacement only and cannot handle much of any drop for an extended period of time. Anything more than a 1" drop or slightly higher than stock spring rates will eventually blow them out.

AGX's are a good mid-priced adjustable shock. Not as good as Tokico Illuminas or Koni Sport (yellows), but still better than GR-2's or Tokico Specials (blues).
