Wondering if this combo is good.

KYB AGX shocks w/ skunk 2 springs.

why skunk 2 springs? because there over 2" drop. I like it lowwwww

well there's people on here who run this setup im sure...but from my understanding, AGX supposed to go well with UP TO 1.5'' drop. i wouldnt know from experience, i have niether so im going on from what i hear.

i just recently installed the kyb agx with the tein s tech and I cant say enough about it bro, the ride looks great and the handling is even better. in my opion, i think you should put it with the teins instead, even with the crappy roads we have here in hawaii, my setup does the trick.....

I have also read on this board that with KYB AGX's, it is not recommended that you go over a 1.5" drop.

On a more personal note, i ran eibach sport lines on the stock shocks/struts for over 50K and they were fine, and they are a 2" drop, I just blew one bump stop from a huge pot hole, hit it at like 75mph, so take it as you will. It handled awsome, and made me fall in love with my GTS.

Id just watch it with the skunk ~2-2.5" drop, if you hit any major bump/pothole, you might just blow out your new shocks, or posibly damage your shock mounting locations.

Id imagine it would handle great though, good luck.

yea in the information i got with the shocks it said warranty is voided if the car was lowered more than 1.5'' or ''slammed'' lol. oh those shock absorber companies and their hip lingo these days :wiggle:
