Default KGMM springs and stock shocks

ok so i have a 2003 ap1 which i bought new and installed a set of kgmm springs shortly after i got the car. The ride in the car is now starting to get a little bouncy especially in the rear. I think it may be time for some new shocks. Ive been out of the loop for a few years and need a little feedback on what i should consider purchasing and where to purchase it



thanks
-Mike

What do you want to do with your car. We need more information.

hey are they the KG/mm race dual rate springs?
I ran them on 00/01 and 02/03 shocks they are about the stiffest lowerring springs you can fit on an OEM shock F:500 R:550!

My car definitely bounced with them and I felt like I killed the first set of shocks..I was just pulling parts off the second set and I noticed a rear is leaking oil so the second set probably bust to!

The cheapest option is to buy a set of used OEM shocks for $200 or you could go to Konis and mount them with the stock perches.
