Kyb Agx guys...................

Im looking to drop my car. I have the struts already, but the only thing i need now is springs. I was just wondering what the guys running Agx's spring setup is, how it looks, and hows the ride.


Pls post pics if you can.

I had AGX's with DZ springs. Awesome look, not a bad ride either. Handling marginally improved.

I have Progress springs with my AGX's, I'm pretty happy with the handling and ride (kinda harsh in colder weather, but not bad). I love the drop with Progress too - low enough where it's noticeable, but not too low where you're eating up axles all the time.

The pic in my sig is with AGX/Progress and 45-series 17" tires.

I've got the AGXs with some Eibachs. Smooth.... that's all I'll say about it. Here's an old pic of when I first got the setup installed.

i have agx with tein s-techs. They are awesome. I'll post you some pics when I get home. The front sits a tad lower then the rear, looks pretty mean. Im also riding on stock 16 inch SE 5 spoke rims.

AGX ride hard as hell and won't last long it you drive bumpy roads everyday. Illuminas are the way to go if you want a nice riding car with a drop.

That is great, if you want a rough ride that bottoms out all of the time.

Tein H-Techs are the only way to go for all-around comfort, handling, and looks on an A32. After that, the Eibachs offer looks and handling, while the H&R offer handling and comfort.

The Tein H-Techs are head and shoulders above other A32 spring options. I have had them with both AGX and Illuminas, and they are clear winners.

First and second pages. That was with 15" tires, though, so keep in mind that lower-profile tires will change the appearance substantially.

Here is one pic:


That was literally the day after I lowered it, so it had not settled at all.
