Default Skunk 2

Calling everyone with Skunk 2 springs. how long did you roll on stock shocks before they went. i was looking for some KG/MM but as it seems impossible to find any i'm thinking about going with the skunk 2 instead. your thoughts are appreciated. thanks

I'm rolling on Skunk2 springs on my AP2 for about 10K miles shocks are still good and i like the ride not too stiff.

Thinking about these for my 04 as well, once my stock shocks go a year down the road I'll either pony up the cash for proper coil-overs or buy some Koni's.

I'm on 46,xxx miles I've had mine on since May of 2006. On an 06 and eveything still rides perfect, I know where they can be had for under 120 and I wouldn't trade mine for any other spring...

I've heard Skunk2 making some members car rear lowered than the front.

Just be patience to wait for the Espelir. I've read nothing but good reviews regarding the Espelir. You won't be able to order it any where at this moment because they're back order from Japan. I am currently waiting for my set to ship from Gruppe-s. I believe it would be worth the wait.

I've had mine on for almost a year, about 6000 miles, shocks are still going strong.

why arent you liking them? are they not sitting level? thanks for all the posts. as far as the espilars go, i dont wanna lower the back so much more then the front, creating the sagging look.
