any of the KYB shocks are good having tried Boge tourning shocks, unipart shocks, and various KYB ones (gas and Oil) i found the KYB's to be the best of the bunch the BOGE ones tend to leak very easily and dont take punishment to well.

The KYB gas shocks are good but tbh the oil ones are plenty firm enough the gas ones should in theory last longer than the oils ones tho

ive got monroe reflex gas shocks (uprated) all round on mine they've taken a beating and still 100% fine, gives the whole car a greater feel of stableness

aye when it comes to shocks the monroes are one of the best money can buy, one of the older members 'Slim' used to swear by monroes and he knew what he was talking about, unlike some people on here
