Exclamation Which Shock to Choose From

Ok I am about to do Shocks and spring's in my car. The shocks will be single adjustable. Should I go with Koni, Qa1 or KYB, and what Spring should I use for the Front and Rear. The Qa1's as a set come with front springs, what should I use in the Rear. I dont want to lower my car though. Plus I'm going for traction, what are the best other parts for that? I have a total of $1,300 maybe a little more. thanks

QA1 sounds like a coil over. Check out Addco and Edelbrock for some other coil over set ups.

For the front, QA1 sells single adjustables and have three different springs with different rates to suit your style of driving. For the rear, they have single adjustables and can use the stock spring. They also sell rear shock coilovers which integrates the shock and the spring into one assembly.
