I have my mind pretty much set on Eibach Prokit springs,Which struts do you think I should use with the Prokits?Thanks:cool:
 
Uh. 2G's don't have struts. Koni Yellows are probably the best choice because they have more travel and are a better overall shock than AGX & Illuminas.

The Eibach Pro Kits are engineered specifically for the KYB AGX struts/shocks. Use AGXs.

It is common knoweledge that AGX shocks are not a good choice for 2G's. Don't give bad advise.

Shocks/struts same difference...well anyways so dont get AGX's then?Ill look into Koni Yellows.Any other reccomendations?
 
I use tokico illuminas with prokits and it seems to be a nice match. might not be stiff enough though if you plan on autocrossing with it. i've been told koni yellows are stiffer.... and yes like most cars today, the 2G uses struts, not shocks.
 
i have the prokit and kyb gr-2's, and i like them. The ride is just like stock, a little more stiff but nothing horriable. Overall it is a nice ride, its no bently. It handels much better than stock but i also added a front stut bar, bigger and wider rims, plus sporty tires.
 
well the gr2 are just like stock shocks well maybe a little better, but if you don't have alot of money to spend for the koni yellow just go with the illuminas.....

If I were giving advice my posts would look like yours. KYB specifically lists that Eibach Pro kits are designed for there struts/shocks.

Advice away.

Prokits have been out long before KYB made the AGX shock so how can this be?:rolleyes:

AGX's don't have enough travel for 2G's! I'm not going to argue with you as there are many posts that deal with this do a search if you don't believe me.
