Will there be a dramatic improvement, a moderate one, or barely none at all? I read what OSGP had to say, but any one else have these that wants to share their opinion?
Yes, there IS a difference with Pro-Kit, Even with stock shocks. The quality of ride's dramatic and much better, so's handling. Not too choppy, but a bit of bobbing. When I first got my Pro-Kit with stock shocks, I was thinking, man that's no drop at all! It looked high just like stock. But after springs settled in, it drops a bit. After 2 years, I guess the stock shocks are wearing off, could tell because the car's front end bobbed even more and the car dropped even more to a point that sometime there's rubbing against the botton of front lip spoiler. Just got Koni Reds 2 months ago and the height was back up again like stock, especially the front end, and hopefully it'll come down a bit once they start to settle in little bit more. Now the ride quality's much more solid and no more bobbing of front end. Hope this helps.
