Shock of choice for GC Sleeves
Im a newbie to the whole sleeve thing... but i know i dont wanna go bouncin down the road on stock shocks.
What shocks do you reccomend for somone lookin to keep a comfortable ride, while riding at a respectable low ride hight? Its just my daily driver (80 miles a day), and will never see any harcore driving.
I've heard that AGX KYB's are harsh even at the softest setting... any truth to this?

What do you guys think about the non adjustable KYB's?
Worth the extra 200 to get the AGX's if im not going to be finetuning for agressive driving?

ok, sorry little buddy, i will rephrase that for you.
Are the AGX's worth the ~$100 more (depending on shipping and where you buy from), when being used for daily driving?

IMO, it is worth it. Especially if you're going to go with coilover springs which are typically stiffer than standard lowering springs. You want to be able to adjust the shocks damping or rebound accordingly to the spring's rate.
With most standard lowering springs (except for the race ones), non-adjustable shocks will work fine as the spring rates arent too stiff.

I just picked up AGX's and I'm trying to figure out what spring rates to go with for GC's. The car is used on the street and occasionally taken to the track.
BTW kyb warehouse on ebay has AGX's for 285 plus 30 for shipping.
