Go with KYB on Rock Auto. They seem to ride like oem, maybe a touch stiffer before break-in.
I bought the shocks. They're good, very happy with them. Setting 1 is basically stock, though was better controlled with what I had. Setting 8 is noticeably firmer - allows much quicker inputs. Currently have them on 3/8 all around and car is balanced - maybe about as firm as an NB RS.
the ride with the kyb's was quite good.
Replace or upgrade shock absorbers / dampers. These are doing the hard work on rougher roads to keep everything under control. KYB seems a reasonable OEM+ style option
I recently did all 4 shocks in my 2002. I got the KYB Gas-a-just shocks from rockauto.com for like $40 per. They’re OEM fit and do what they’re supposed to.
I put KYB on my 07 Corolla and 2-3 months in they feel great, car rides very smooth.
I did KYB … They made a huge change to my 99 Corolla.
I put KYB's in my 924S and they were fine on Hawai'i's questionable roads.
I have the same ones on mine. they seem to do the job just fine. a bit stiffer than the oil filled sachs
I initially replaced my front structs and rear shocks with KYB Excel-G parts as they “seemed” to have good ratings and reviews as “good” shocks. The ride quality is now more “rough” and “bouncy” since apparently these shocks/struts are more stiff.
