Ok I am in the market for new shocks. I currently own GC coil overs and Tokico Blues. Right now my ride is pretty bouncey in the front and the shock bottoms out in the rear when I have two passengers.... I dont know what my spring rate is or what that is or how it will help.... I am currently going to lower my car in the front to the rim so that the fender is at the top of the rim and in the back I will lower it right above the tire. I drive this car to work as my daily driver however I really take cornering hard I want the car to stick to the floor... I currently am running a carbing front 3pt strut, Em 3pt trunk setp, ASR rear subframe Brace and 22mm rear sway and aftermarket skunk2 Lca..... I want the best shock for hard cornering.... what would you guys recommed and why?

Plz help

The Koni Sport (Yellow), is one of the better dampers to pair with GC sleeves, but pretty much any decent damper be it the Illumina, AGX or Koni Sport will be better than the Blues.

Yeah, but with Koni's, he'd have to buy new GC sleeves since you need to buy koni-specific GCs. Check the GC online store and make sure you buy a good shock that will fit the current sleeves you have (unless you plan on buying new sleeves too...).
