Default quality shock/struts(aftermarket)???

which companies setup doesnt destroy the ride quality?
with low pro tires you can already feel the pebbles in the road, is there a setup that wont make it much worst?
also is there any buying tip dealing with the subject?

If you're not too low, and have a softer spring, you should be fine. I had a car with Tein S-tech springs and Koni Yellows, it rode great!

If its really that bad, get rid of those huge wheels

I run 400f and 400r ground controls with the koni yellows and a 205x50x15 tire and my ride quality is pretty nice.

ebay has the cheapest prices for KYB GR-2 and AGX. I got my NEUSPEED springs for 140 on HT marketplace.
