Hey guys I am looking into my suspension and I was wondering if getting new struts would give me a smoother ride. The only thing I have done to my suspension is sprint lowering springs and I feel like my teeth are gonna break I get so beat around in the car! But if I get some kyb struts or something like that will it make a difference or should I just save up for some cheap Megan coilovers? Not trying to make a race car but a nice handling street car.
 
Your stuck struts are not going to last long with those springs. If you want KYB struts then go with the AGX's because the GR2's will not last for long with lowering springs. From what I've heard, Koni yellows are one of the better struts/shocks for our cars
 
Putting Konis on a car with Sprint springs is like putting a bandaid on a sucking chest wound. A really nice bandaid, but a bandaid none-the-less.

FWIW -- GR-2 work fine with Eibach Prokit springs, but I've no idea with Sprint, don't know them.
