why not get adjustable shocks? AGX's are only a little more expensive.

not quite sure about which of those two is better but generally tokico is a higher "class" than kyb. anyways, like RTI said get the AGX. the gr-2 and the tokico blues are just oem replacements. with the agx u get some adjustability and u can find some on ebay for just about the same price

If your looking for a reliable daily driver shock, go with Monroe Sensatrac struts. They come with a lifetime warranty and have a very nice feel. I work at Sears and those are what we use for installation, and have heard good things.

The AGX's are struts. What do you mean they don't come with struts? What do they come with then?
