Default Suspension

Im looking for some new suspension for my 02 Monte. I want to do coil over system. Does anyone have these installed already? I want to know if they are better than the KYB AGX's.

I just installed the coil overs from HPmotorsports... i love them

You can order them with agx or gr2 struts from KYB ... i ordered with the agx struts...

They fit perfect and i love the way the handle... Also the curb appeal is amazing...

Ok Im ignorant to suspention for modern cars. Is this a lowering system? If so, how much? Do you recomend the kit for it's comfort level or handling? I want to lower my Monte with 16's mounted to an 04. Any other recomondations?

If I get new springs (lowering) should I also get new struts?

I read it was recommended but not 100% necessary

I'm looking at getting these next spring! I want to be able to have full control of my suspension height and stiffness. This seems better than air ride!
