Skunk2 Coilovers + kyb agx shocks
I've search around and read alot of threads about skunk2's, my question is while doing alot of daliy driving with the skunk2+kyb on a bumpy road.. will it send me flying in the air, or will i just ride through really really stiffly kinda like a wobble wobble thing the coils and shocks will be going on a 96-98 ek hatch, for all the people that have them on your coupes/hatches and stuff give me some detail and info on these.
thanks in advance

my friend has that set up on his EG. Its stiff, but thats how he likes it. it does bounce a bit here and there, stiff bounce not ghetto lose suspension bounce.

that's what im running and i have no complaints...
the ride is a stiff kind of bumpy and not coilover riding on dead shocks/struts bumpy.
i think my car rides smoother than my mom's 02 civic at stock height... even my dad agrees and i'm lowered 2.5".
oh yea, it's on a coupe.

THats a great set-up and you wont be dissapointed. If you set the shocks on 1 there real friendly.
BTW if you go with g/c's you can order custom spring rates which allows you to tailor make your set-up...also the guys at gc can really help you pick out the best rates.

well, im getting my whole set up under 500$ so yeah.. and if they ride the same then i might as well stay on the cheaper side..
