Default KYB AGX Sport Struts

Hey I'm looking at different suspention setups. I dont want to lower the car its low enough for where I live now, we dont have potholes we have craters. I've seen these for sale I was jsut wondering if anybody on here is running these on there monte and if so I'd like to know how you feel about them. Thanks

I had a set of the AGX's on my '03 SS and overall they were very nice. However, I can say they weren't my first choice. I looked at Bilstein initially but I don't think they make struts for the 6th Gens, or at least they didn't five/six years ago, because I couldn't find them. I went with the AGX's and paired them with lowering springs. Was a nice setup, couldn't complain about them. I am going with Bilstein's on my '06 SS when the time comes to replace them.

Here's a few pictures of my install and setup on my '03...





Hope that helps!

I have regular KYB struts on my Monte but on my Camaro i had the AGX struts & they were pretty good alot better than the OEM struts thats for sure, but if Pedders was ever to make a kit for the Montes id be all over that no matter the cost, GTO has Pedders & its prob one of the best suspensions you can buy
