I 2nd this motion but there is always eibach or neuspeed to look at..but definitely stay with kyb agx shocks they are awesome riding |
I think they H&R OE's have like a .75 in drop or something like that. Your probably going to want to go lower than that ;) Your pretty safe on the camber kit thing till you go over 2 in and even then some people run w/o camber kits fine. Let us know what you decide :thumbup:

I say Eibach Pro Kit with KYB AGX
|
I thought they didn't make the KYB AGX's for the 6 gen

I have the Eibach prokits, they are too low to use with stock tires and no camber kit. I killed my OE tires.
If you aren't getting a camber kit I'd strongly recommend the H&R OE's, especially if you have the stock wheels and tires. As for shocks, www.Shox.com send them an email, get prices for shocks. And pick the brand that is the cheapest. If you aren't driving way hard it's not going to matter much. In fact if the stock shocks are like new, just keep using them. If the mileage is over 60k get new ones, it will be the last set the car will ever need. |

I rode on H&R sports for 2.5 years with no camber correction and I was able to get 25K miles out of some Kumho 712s. I also had the H&R sports with the stock shocks for 2 years and they kept the ride dampened pretty well. No blowns shocks. Granted the Koni's I have now are much better and offer much more performance and I would still recommend you swap to performance shocks when using sport springs, but the stock shocks really weren't as bad as some people make them out to be. |
does any one have a picture of their car with H&R O.E.'s on that will help me determine if I want to go with the o.e.'s or the sports
