Agx?

I want to order rear AGX's. Anyone have feedback for me.
My 05 MAX is lowered (eibach)

Today I had 4 people in my car and the right rear was rubbing a little on the "felt like liner" towards the reat of the car. Would the AGX's help with this??

WOuld you recommend them?

Kinda upset about the rubbing.

I have the agx rear shocks and they are awsome. The rear shocks and the resr sway bar were the best suspension mods I have done. Now I need to get the konis for the front.

what kind of difference did the AGX make over the stock shocks? DO they make a rear sway bar for the 05 MAX? Does the car have one stock??

Sorry for bumping such an old thread, but let me ask you just a question.

Are the AGX's more comfortable,if set to the softest level on stock springs than the rear SE stock shocks(on stock springs)? I'm not a racer and the roads here are not of the best ones, so i'm looking for something what would make the ride more comfortable :I
Thanks

I had the KYB AGX 8-way adjustable shocks with Eibach's and they performed great. 8 is the highest setting and great for the track for reducing the squat (FWD rear goes down during takeoff), or for carrying a full load. Adjustment is by a turn **** located on the shock (click, click)and it was fairly easy to reach from behind the rear wheel. For the street I normally set mine on 4-5 for a good balance between street and performance. Setting on 8 will make the rear somewhat bouncy if rolling on the street with occasional pot holes. Regardless I highly recommend these shocks and right now they are rolling on another members car when I changed to coilovers. I don't recommend coilovers if you have low profile tires or live in an area with bad roads. Still your call...

PS, grave digger!!!

The AGX's are not as comfortable as OEM (but close).

Assuming you're not lowered and have OEM springs, the only way to get more comfy is more comfortable tires and optimizing your tire pressure (about 30-31 PSI cold).

Thanks for the inputs guys!
It looks like i will have to keep the stock crap until Tokico change their minds and eventually make some good shocks for the 6th GEN
