On my 2016 prius, I bought kyb structs and shocks for $400 installed it for 350
Pros: kyb structs and shocks
Vehicle:
Toyota Prius
The KYB Shocks and Quick Struts made it a brand-new car.
EXCEPT, with the OEM suspension, it never rode so WELL.
The vague, plush, sloppy feel of OEM felt like crap. No steering response or any road feel, anytime you tried to avoid a pothole in the road, you seemed to hit it.
Pros: brand-new car
Cons: vague, plush, sloppy feel
Vehicle:
Honda Fit
Mileage: 120000 km
I have the KYB with Eibach springs on my GS400. The ride is smooth & controlled
Pros: smooth and controlled ride
Vehicle:
Lexus
I put KYB OEM equivalent shocks on my old Crown Vic several years ago. The major brands made the car float and bob like a '62 model. I tried KYB because they had a set for my car and a 2-3 year range. Everyone else was 'this fits '75 thru 2002 models. I was very pleased with them.
Pros: good performance
Vehicle:
Ford Crown Victoria I
Buy KYB Struts Plus because they are identical to the OEM in replicating the ride and feel.
Pros: replicates ride and feel
I went with KYB OEs for my 96. Really good ride and were cheap for the set on rock auto.
Pros: really good ride, cheap
I run KYB Monomax shocks on mine. They have a nice balance of a comfortable ride and weight support for towing. As an added bonus you get a lifetime warranty with them.
Pros: comfortable ride, weight support
I put KYB's in my 924S and they were fine on Hawai'i's questionable roads.
Pros: fine on questionable roads
Vehicle:
Porsche
I had these KYBs on the front of my W124 for a while, until I went over a speed bump and one of the struts blew out.
Pros: normal non-descript damper
Cons: struts blew out
