KYB AGX and winter

I was wondering if it matters whether I get the AGX's during winter or if it better to get them after winter. I have Tokico Blues now but they are pretty much gone. Should I wait til winter is over to get the AGX's?


Thanks.

Ran my AGX's during the winter and it didn't make a difference. The tires are what matters. wide Low profile tires and snow don't mix. i tooke my 235's off after the first snow last year, thought I was going to die. Put the snows on with the AGX and it was a noticable difference.

Some people like to turn the adjustments down for winter, because they get stiff. Just an idea, I would turn mine down for winter but I don't drive in winter.

Anything is stiff when it's REALLY cold.

Tires are definately what matters. I had put my rims on too early and it snowed and I was only able to move about 10 feet before the tires started spinning.

If the shocks are gone I would suggest replacing them
