i was thinking of going coils but what are the best struts to use for uas bags, if u wanna ride low?

 

Bilstein sports other than coilovers.

 

been running kybs for over a year. The question is wat do u consider low?

 

its funny that youre running kybs because airunner struts are kybs also.

 

Spyder makes a good point. What do you consider low. UAS guys should post up some pictures at ride height. Too many people have this misconception that because you can dump your car while parked, that you will be able to daily drive at that height too.

 

I would like to know too! I drive super slammed and my one of my factory struts is gone. The noise is annoying, not to mention ride quality. I will be getting struts soon and I would like to know. When I had my 20's I would always tuck all the tire/rubber in the back, and in the front, high enough so that I wouldnt hit my tire with the cars frame.. Sorry for thread jacking.

 

i ride with no gap in the front and tucked in the rear daily on coilovers(usually on 19, but right now on 18 eurolines). i would like to ride low, park even lower, and raise it when it on driveways, speedbumps, etc.


i was thinking Bilstein sports too, but i heard it doesnt do so well riding low... any kind of air bag input would be helpful guys. thanks

 

Ive never heard of bilstein sports riding bad when low, i thought that is what they are for. I liked my kyb gr-2s, they worked fine. But I would imagine Bilstein sports would ride so much better at low ride heights.

 

i was about to buy some bilstein sports too. but ran outta money. i found a place selling em for 460 shipped

 

Ok, so did we ever come to a conclusion? Im thinking of selling my UAS, but I need to get some shocks first. I want to sell a good set up. Also, isn't there a shock with lifetime warranty? I thought I read that somewhere... That would make ALOT of sense lol,
KYB GR-2/EXCEL-G SHOCK< Are those any good? For one, they run like 70 for the front which is cheap.

 

KYB GR-2 do come with a lifetime warranty and a good replacement over stocks. However if you want to ride low they are not that great as the valving on them is too soft. That is why I am trying to work out a solution with UAS, hopefully should have a solution utilizing UAS with coils to get the best ride and height.

 

I was happy when my stock shocks were good and I drove low. I guess those will be good for me. What shocks do you have? And do you ride low? I drive looooooowwww btw

 

I'm watching this thread as I want to go air but ride low as well

 

I had kybs on my gs witt uas, it was kinda bouncy low and the drive wasnt so smooth. i shoulda went for the bilsteins. now i got some megans and uas and it drives 10 times better!

 

I currently have KyB GR2s and I'm really happy. When I first installed my uas/kyb kit, I drove extremely low and blew out 2 struts. I changed out all 4 under warranty. hehe.

^ I bet Megans ride better, since you could adjust the bottom perch. Therefore, getting full suspension travel.
