Best all around shocks/struts?
I need to replace my shocks and struts, but dont know which to buy.
The car is lowered with eibach sportline springs. I drive it on the street alot, it is setup more for handling, but does see the dragstrip (hopefully about twice a month this year). I dont want a shock fully dedicated to drag or auto-x, something that will do both decently.
I know I need something adjustable, but I am on a budget. Looking at KYB AGX, but have heard some people dont like them.
Thanks

Re: Best all around shocks/struts?
I know that you said that you are on a budget, but Koni SA's are probably the best all round shock. DA's are probably not required. Do it once and do it right.
Stay clear of the KYB's. I havent heard of anyone using them successfully on an fbody for a roadcourse/autox application.

Konis are definitely the best route to go, but they are pricey. An alternative would be the Bilsteins which are a good all around performer. As for the KYBs, I talked to a couple of people who owned them and they did not have good things to say.
