People have been raving about KYB AGX since they came out.

If you can get a good deal, go for it.

I got the AGX for $345 shipped. Do search for AGX and you can find the thread where the guy was selling for this price.

Unless you've been living in a cave and didn't hear, buy the AGX's.....

The KYB struts are great, but only if don't mind a stiff ride. On the softest setting the KYB AGX have a much better feel than the Tokica Blues or stock shocks {ie stiffer with much better control}.

I bought my set for $350 shipped from:

the are VERY easy to adjust - the back ones you can do with your bare hands and the fronts just need a screwdriver that comes with it. I can adjust all 4 in 5 mins. stop asking questions and get the AGX - there is no other standard strut that compares to it

KYB is a great company.

The AGX is the best replacement strut/shock available for the Maxima. The GR2 is a solid, reliable long lasting replacement cartridge that is far superior to the OEM units & is available at very competitive prices.

PS: I have AGX's & love them.
