I have a 96 LS and I have a Pro-Kit. Im looking for performance and comfort. Im on a tight budget. I've looked at the Skunk2 Sports and I like those. What else would you guys suggest? And would you suggest the Skunk2 at all?

 

Bump

 

I think the KYB AGX's work good with those.

What is your budget?

 

Bout $300 Shipped. Unless I run across a good deal. Then I would spring for a little more.

 

KYB and Eibach prokit is a nice set up I had it on my car for about 2months b4 I got sick of the stance and bought Koni and GC.. but it rode very nice and kyb shocks are adjustable so thats a +

they were a great combo it's just I wanted to lower more.. but I knew that when I bought them..lol it was just a quick fix for me.

 

Which KYBs did you have? And when you say it rode good... how good? As good as stock? Better? Worse? Thanks!

 

I had tokico illuminas with the prokit. It was a nice ride on the lowest setting and an awesome ride with a high setting if you looking for a little bit of performance.

 

You sellin the Tokicos? How many miles do they have on them?

 

personally, the pro-kit is nice, but it's not a low enough drop. typically, people see the back lowered more than the front. do your searching before you buy anything else

 

The pro-kit doesn't need anything spectacular, KYB GR-2's would be fine.

 

Thats true. All I really wanted it for was to get rid of most of the fender well gap. A small increase in handling is just a plus for me. After I got them I started thinking about my stock struts/shocks that are 12 years old and have almost 160k on them. I just dont think they could handle the ROUGH roads of Louisiana with a lower and stiffer spring.

 

what about eibach shocks?

illuminas here too but with eibach sportline. im changing over to ground control coil springs tho since the ride looks uneven with just lowering springs

I owned the AGX(adjustable shocks) yes they rode a lil better than stock depending on the setting you put them on...I've only had AGX and Koni to compare as shocks go, and the Koni ride a hell of a lot better than the AGX.. but AGX are good for a DD.. Pretty cheap adjustable shocks IMO

But tokico illuminas are a lil better shock for the money

 

I think you can get the Tokico HP's for like $215 now, good way to go if you want to save money. If you turn the dollars up the Konis are something else, they really give you a great feel of the road and control body motion. The ride isn't punishing just tight. I've used the Koni sport on my Vette and a couple prior cars and have always been very pleased.
