I ordered the KYB AGX adjustable shocks and put the rear ones on as they are the easyest. I'll leave the fronts for the shop.
Anyway they are adjustable and have a setting 1 through 8. I have them on 8, the firmest I believe and my ride is great but the handling seems pretty bad. The rear seems to move around too much compared to the stock DeCarbons. I have aftermarket LCAs and panhard rod (adj. length.) and a thicker 21mm swaybar. and wider 17" wheels, 275/40 tires all around.
Maybe I should have ordered the Bilsteins.
In the mean time I'll just play around with the settings. Hopefully they are on the softest but before I installed them I pushed the rod in and it didn't seem to make any differance. The gas pushed them out ok.
Anyway that was my first impressions on the KYB AGX shocks. If you want a better ride they are great but for handling I think they are laking in stiffness.
