    Default Want to upgrade my suspension

    iight this is the thing, my car is a daily driver and i drive it to the city almost everyday and my suspension is alil to stiff for those conditions, I have Koni Yellows. Is there a set of suspension thats good for comfort and still remain the 2" drop?

    anything else is gonna be stiffer, unless you get coil overs which have more adjustability of dampening, and u can just stiffen it up on the weekends.

    2" is too low for the city as you must know for owning at least 2 sets. I bought the eibach pro-kit which is a nice drop, handles very well, and takes bumps great. Definitely a good purchase.

    well to make things more clearer, i just really need a good set of springs since thats the issue with stiffness, the struts are fine as of now.

    took a look at my front struts and it's officially blown, oil was leaking from the bottom of the strut.

    I was looking in the vender section and i seen the KYB struts.. are they any good if i put lowering springs? can they handle a 2" drop? I'm not tring to go to crazy with buying top of the line suspension due to other payments.

    u never heard of kyb?? lol if theyre kyb agx youll be fine. the regular kybs are like stock. agx is for the lowered cars. reason i said tokico cause the white ones are shorter in length for lowered cars. but theyre not cheap
