Default kyb gr-2 shocks

can a coilover system with a spring rate of 300f/340r perform well on this type of shock?

The gr2's are comparable to the oem shock. I recommend you at least get agx's.

Your performance will be equal to stock. Might even peform worse than stock depending on the coilover setup you plan on mating the struts with.

honestly, i loved my kyb gr2. im sick of hearing all this crap that they are just a stock replacement n ****.

i have tried both a fake groundcontrol/kyb gr2

and

tokico blues with real groundcontrols

by far the kyb and fake groundcontrols rode way better than the tokico blue/real ground control
