New KYB shocks @ RRM website
So ive been waiting for this for a while and browsing through Road Road Motorsports, Ive seen a $469 for a set of KYB front and rear shocks/struts which isnt bad. My question is how is the quality of the KYBs? Ive been eying the RRM springs to go with it as well. Let me know if you have any good or bad feedback with KYBs. Thanks.

if ur gonna go with springs..go with the Tien if you can handle the drop..if not ebach springs i heard have the best all around quality..the drop is just less noticeable
so if you are going for looks definitely go with tein..honestly its the only ones i can actually tell a drop was done
