what he said.. however if the drop is around 1.5, then consider the KYB AGX, less expensive and very good.

i was just thinking, won't better shocks help handling but not comfort? i guess i am a little concerned about ride comfort, but I guess i'd rather have the drop, looks hella nice
 , but I'm getting used to it. |

well kyb can be adjusted for both. the problem with kyb is that they are made for stock springs, but they will hold drops up to 1.6". i know quite a few guys that have them and drops of 2-2.25" and they still hold. hopefully i answered your question. ohhh one more thing: did u get the car aligned after the drop ? it might be that crappy because it's out of alignament

i don't have any experience with them.they are the cheaper way to go. i opted for AGX'es because of the damping adjustability, and sometimes i find myself carying big loads of stuff in my trunk and that helps tune the car for every conditions.

For a bigger drop like that, look at Koni yellows. They are expensive, but you don't want to skimp on your suspension.
