heh... well I like my daily driver to handle well... so Id say its both. You can definitely feel the bumps, but before the agx I had blown rears, so anything is better than that. Why not try it out? Changing it simply involves you twisting four knobs.

I use the following setup.

Wet weather/daily - 1 front, 1 rearNice weather/daily - 2 front , 4 rearSpirited driving on mountain passes (only in good weather) - 4 front, 7 rear.

Working out great for me.

I have ProKit springs and everything else is stock.

Hey MOTOP, I just bought some KYB AGXs for myself and I have also been planning to add the Prokit... Do you still enjoy this setup? Thanks for the stats on your settings; they should be helpful.

I never tried anything other than ProKit, but I like them and they seem to do their job. I feel like AGX set to minimal setting isn't enough for ProKits spring rate - not enough rebound effect and it feels too bumpy.

I bet stock springs with AGX would feel awesome for dialy driving, however there's this huge wheel gap.

driftaholic, how do you like the stechs ?

you adjust the front w/ flat hea screw drivers they give you (or any flat head screw driver small enough)...I'm on RSR race springs and I ride on 3/6 daily... I don't have a rear sway bar so it feels pretty neutral to me. With ground control springs what are your springs rates? you might wanna set the settings to higher settings because I believe stiff springs + underdampened shocks = bad for your struts/shocks and handling..
