Quick question about springs/shocks
im considering removing my KYB AGX's for 3 reasons:
1. the ride is too rough
2. i dont drive the car hard enough to really get good use out of them
3. i could sell them and use the money toward another mod
my question is: is it a good idea to remove the shocks and put the stock ones back on using my neuspeed sport springs? i dont want to use the stock springs because i like the way the car looks lowered.

sorry to burst your bubble, but when you go back to stock shocks:
1. the ride will be even rougher
2. even if you're driving less aggressively, the underdampened oscillations of the suspension will make driving more dangerous if not irritating to drink a cup of coffee on your way to work in the car
3. you should save the money you get when you sell them to replace the stock shocks you just blew out from insufficient travel and too stiff of a spring.
there's no way around it. you want the car lowered the right way? get a good damper/shock. i suggest you look at some koni yellows and be done with it.

Stock shocks+ Lowering springs= ****
