ok i have installed kg/mm dr21's and my front shocks are basicly shot, and i know my rears are soon to follow, so i need to replace them, the problem is i was going to go with koni yellow's and i wanted them on the second perch, but i have BBS RG-R's in 18" and i think i will rub on the second perch, so basicly if i do find out i will rub i want to have some other options for shocks. which shocks are a good combination for my springs and also won't drop the car more than another .5in? thanks

 

they can't be shot this quick can they?

 

i have had them on for about 3 months now. and they are making a noise every time i go over a hard bump, one of my friends shocks were doing this too, he replaced them and no more noise so i think they are. the springs are reall stiff.

 

I'm really surprised your not rubbing already with the race springs. Don't those things drop the car 1.5

 

its really close i mean in the rear i have maybe .5in wheel gap if not less and like .75 in wheel gap in the front. but basicly nothing. it looks sick.

 

Unless you've beat on them, your shocks are still in great condition. Mine creak and groan when it's cold out and I hit a bump at slow speeds, but that's all. With 0.5" of gap, you're going to shred your wheel wells the first time you hit a large, unexpected bump at speed.

Wow, I've had the race springs for about 8 months now. Drive my car daily and my stock shocks are still fine. U sure the install was done correctly?

get coilovers.

 

yeah maybe something just go loose
so ur shocks are at a weird angle

 

seriously, i dont think your shocks are worn out bro, check them out again
