well i was very very fortunate to stumble upon this setup. supposedly this is the closest if the not equivalent to a stiff coilover setup. i will definitely keep yall informed on the ride and stuff like that. my main question is what in the world am i to do if i should ever want to replace the shocks. the setup isnt on my car yet but this thought has crossed my mind. These shocks are supposedly some kind of "special" shocks made by kyb. Has anyone ever heard of them or have any info on them. I mainly bought the setup for the springs but the shocks came with them. :c) so anyone heard of them or know what shocks to match up with these springs if i have to replace them?

i did install them and the kybs are str8 from japan and i can't locate any info on them. i will say that if you have 17s, these are the springs for you. no wheel well gap and no rubbing. no fitment issues, no major camber issues. i will post pics and will most likely start a new topic for it all.

I didn't look anything up, but its probably a KYB short stroke shock. I am hopefully getting the same spring, but I'm gonna just use the plain ol adjustable shocks.

Koni makes a short stroke shock that you can purchase here as a replacement (if the KYB is a short stroke). If not find someone to import them.
