Default Need struts for B&M springs

I have b&m lowering springs, 1.25" drop with stock struts. I wanna replace with better riding struts. Does anyone know which struts will fit the b&m's.

any strut that is a replacement for your stock strut will work...long as the strut works with the car it will work with the spring

Well, yea obviously, but since I lowered the car, the stock like strut will not work. I need a shorter strut to put more weight on the spring and not so much on the strut, giving me a better ride. Did I explain myself. But I guess I'd be better of asking the same company. Thanx. suicide

and it's 1.75" I told you... poke tongue.gif

What do you guys think of the Eibach dampers with the b&g's... I know the eibachs are made for the 1.25" drop not 1.75"... but this is where we're stuck... not sure what would make it a better ride...

If you want to cheap out, get the KYB's. Not the greatest strut, but they work. Or if you want to spend a little more, then yeah..get either Koni Adjustables or the Eibach Pro Dampers. If you can find a US distributor for Hyundai's, you could also get Bilstein, but they're pretty pricey, and they're hard to come by, especially for Tibs. wink But they are made for our cars.

Edit:

Oh yeah...not sure if they have specific applications for us, but check out Tokico as well. smile.gif
