Zzz Matt! Report here! New struts w/ springs
So I'm looking to replace stock stunts on the mc and I'm not sure what to get, bilisteins are discontinued and I keep hearing mixed reviews about the kyb. I'm kinda in a budget and I also wanna lower the mc at the same time.

I heard that they were being discontinued so I picked up a second replacement set that I have waiting for when I feel its time to change the set I have on now.
I have no experience with KYB. Cant help you there. gl!!

Yeah I thought Matt had mentioned in his thread about lowering that they were discontinued..so idk what would be a good replacement. I heard monroes did well for the gxps and the kyb g excel did well, some folks don't like the kybs cause they were saying they are bouncy, but then again some say they were very tight so idk. I was thinking the kybs g excels but idk how well they work with lowering springs.

Unfortunately the Bilsteins, which are (were) by far the best option IMO, are not available anymore so I guess a few of us, including myself, got lucky with timing on those. You can put a lowering spring on any strut, including stocks, it's just a matter of how long the strut will last with the added strain of riding lower - why I went with the beefier Bilstein HDs.

I'm still on stock suspension but have been doing my homework when the day comes. I'll be getting the adjustable KYBs.

Which ones shock and thanks Matt for your input, I remember when you lowered yours, I iust thought I'd use the obnoxious thread to catch your attention lol, but what would you suggest? I was looking at the excels and I remember running into a thread on another forum saying that there were diff than the g2s, I heard the g2s are a bit small for the fe4 suspension and the excels were supposed to be a fix for that. I can't remember where I read it but yeah I was probably gonna go with the excels and use my stock coils until after winter and then swap to lowering springs. Cut down the cost and also I don't wanna have the mc being a plower during the snowy months lol
