Hey, I have a set of Ground Control Coilovers and my settings are pretty low (about 2" or a lil more all around). I tried searching and most say Koni Yellows are good. I kno KYBs dont recommend past 2" and Tokicos are non-adjustable. Soooo whats out there for me?

with a 2" drop you're really pushing it if you're going to buy an off the shelf kinda shock. even aftermarket shocks are going to wear out more quickly. i think some people use the KYB AGX shocks with their GC's. they could probably answer you're question better

well as of right now, i'v been using my stock shocks w/ my GC. I had it about 3" drop all around. Now i have a 2" drop all around and i'v been riding on em for about 1 1/2 year - pushing 2 years. It's been ok so far. I know it's going to give out 1 day. when that day comes, i will be buying teins :gap:

Ruh oh shaggy.

Im getting my dropzone springs installed tuesday. 2.25" front and 2.50" rear (what they claim).

I'm doing the washer trick in the back for the rear camber. Unfortunatly I cannot afford new shocks or camber kits for a bit.

Im gonna thrash my stock suspension for a few months I guess :p

yeah ive only had my GCs on my stock shox for about 3 months. But the rear passenger side make a Thump noise when i go over bumps or dips on the road. i have 225/40/18" rims... should i jus raise the car more? u can check my drop in my sig..
