KYB GR2's
How are they, how do they ride? My car has Intrax 2" loweing springs, I have factory struts right now but my rear ones are weak - would these be a good upgrade, they are cheap... or would i be better off saving for a different shock?
Should I go with the GR-2's? Kyle

the kyb GR-2's are intenede as an OE replacement shock. i doubt it will take the abuse of a 2" drop

OE shocks seem to give a nice ride with my intrax springs though.... but would they blow out? or what should i get? i am very low on funds and i am using OE in the front

i have gr2s.. they came on my car. they were replaced like 50 miles before i bought the car. i have dropzone coilovers and its lowered like 1" (on the perch - which turned out to be about 3" drop in reality). ride seems barely bouncier than stock (and thats with a 3" drop on DROPZONES... and dropzones are known for being bouncy.. which i didnt know until after i bought them).
