Replaced rear shocks to KYB "Sport"
Replaced rear shocks to KYB "Sport"
Changed rear shocks to kyb "sport" replacements - big improvement!
my 2014 has 50k miles on it. Bought it with 42k on it.
The rear suspension has always felt "loose".
So, I picked up a set of KYB replacements for a sport suspension. They're a different part number from the standard replacement.
When I removed the originals, it was apparent that they didn't have much dampening to them. Very soft, especially in compression. The new ones were noticeable stiffer.
Removal & installation was a snap.
On my 10mile test ride, the now stable ride quality was immediately noticeably. Now, the car feels stable on rough roads & through bumpy curves..
So, between the tire change to the Continental dws-06's & the rear shock upgrade, this feels like a different car completely.
