Shock absorbers KYB or OEM Toyota
KYB am pus recent, sunt f bune.
Eu pun KYB de prin 2014 si am fost mereu multumit.
I was looking around for a 2 inch lift for my gen 3 and eventually settled with KYB skorched 4's and King springs. My stock suspension was gone and sagging rear drivers side. The new spring/shock combo is a nice ride, comfy enough, and good for all types of terrain so far.
KYB makes really good shocks. FCS if you are on a budget. Probably the best budget brand. You'll still close to OEM ride but probably would wear out earlier
I did my Prius with KYB after the stock parts started seeping after 160k. I’m at 210k now and they are still good.
We did just replace the original shocks though. Went cheap with KYB but the ride quality improved tremendously over the worn out shocks.
The ride is "smoother" as in it doesn't bounce nearly as much when taking bumps. It's easier to control. Daughter noticed right away and said it's not throwing her all over the place. Cornering is far better since it doesn't want to roll as much.
I bought a few parts back off of it, including the nearly new KYB shocks I put on it that I then put on my sg(they were sg shocks).
Kyb suck and monroe isnt too much better. I ended up paying out the nose for OEM shocks on my truck and I'm glad I did
As for the continental kit affecting the handling, I really don't think it makes a difference, the handling is terrifying! There is a long 90 degree curve near me, and when I try to push the car thru it, I get body lean, tire squeal, and understeer that slowly gives way to a neutral attitude.
Annoyingly I have a 1 year old kyb excel g that popped its seal. Cost to ship it back for warranty not worth it.
