Default Re: CAI

I feel that its well overdue that I upgrade/replace my suspension stuff. My 2001 tibby has almost 95,000 miles on her. LOL And I'm still running the original struts and whatnot. So I guess my question is: from what I read on the old site, would my best bet be to go with EIBACH lowering springs, and the KYB Struts? The KYB's seem to be the best bang for the buck anyway. I read some reviews on this setup and everyone that has it seems to like it a lot. But I would just like to confirm this and see where people have bought these from so I can find the best prices.

Thanks guys!

Does this seem like a good buy or too much?

If those are the ones that you are going to go for, that is a good price and I have heard good things about the tirerack.

I have KYB's and Eibach springs.
The ride is awesome, not too harsh at all, but stil firm enough to handle on and off ramps with ease. If you want a rough ride, get full coil overs. If you want a good and affordable set up, get KYB struts and Eibach struts.

Hey Bouve I am going to be purchasing the EiBach Prosystem plus kit (Struts, Springs, ARK). The tire rack price is the best price that I've been able to find on that. $1024 I beleive.

Actually, I found a place awhile ago that would sell them to forums for $860, shipped.

I'll look for it.

I'm pretty certain that it's...

www.shox.com

They don't have it listed but email them about it.

http://www.shox.com/appguide/quote/quote_form.php

That's a quote form for Internet Car Clubs.

I'm pretty sure that was the place, I lost the emails in my email disaster this year.
