Hi,

I have an 06 gs430 that needs some rear shocks. Decided to replace all four and lower my car. What are the shocks available for our car?? Bilstein, KYB, Koni,?? Thanks....

 

welcome to CL

as of today, there is nothing. wait for the fsport

if you are going to lower it and put that much $$ into it then get coils. You can get a good set of coils for almost the same amount. Then you have better control of the drop and ride. I wouldnt waste the $$ on FSport shocks/springs after you total it all up. You get warranty if you are worried about that other wise you have better options out there for the $$.

 

true. but don't forget you also have to rebuild the shocks on your coilovers too. and then there is the downtime your car is undriveable when your shocks are getting rebuilt, unless of course you swap in your oem spring/shocks.

there are pros/cons for every setup, whether it be springs or coilovers.

 

honestly i have yet to rebuild any coilovers on my cars. for example tein, i have seen people with 30-40k miles and shocks are still fine
