Default Need Shock and Strut Advice.

Hello all, I am the proud new owner of some Tein H-Tech springs. I have decieded to not do the impatient newbie impulse and just put those on my stock shocks and need some advice with what shock / strut you think I should pair with these springs? I would like to keep the ride at least a little bit comfortable, but the one thing that I need to absolutlely avoid is excessive bounce. Thank you.

the trd struts?

the springs are going to have more of an impact on ride because of their spring rates. the struts do the dampening.

The monroe struts and shocks will make a huge difference, and if you want to be able to adjust, go with the Koni's.

You can't go wrong with Koni's, track proven and a limited lifetime warranty.
