Is it worth it??

[scottish-sr]

Some might have seen Ive posted wanting some shocks for my car. Ive got Eibach springs on the way for it, but was wanting to run some better performance shocks aswell - is it really worth buying them or just run the springs with the standard shocks, whats the pros n cons??

Cheers
Chris

standard shocks will be fine for a 35mm drop, what drop are your eibach was 30mm last i looked ages ago i think.

pros: erm well better handling, stance.

cons: shocks will wear out earlier than they would with normal springs, more uncomfortable ride.

you'll get slight uneven tyre wear without an adjusable panhard rod. camber kit ond castor kit will help also.

get the shocks, i didnt bother with em and all 4 of mine went pretty much straight away with -35mm. If you get the KYB ones theyre great. You ahve to remember a garage might charge you upwards of £50 to change the springs, then your only gonna have to pay it a few weeks down the line again if you cant do it yourself
