I have to Rancho 9000s in my identical looking TJ and it rides great. Anyone who drives it can’t believe it’s a lifted TJ

Pros: rides great

Vehicle: Jeep

Body bounce:

I just lowered my wife's car (per her request) on H&R springs with new kyb shocks. It rides a bit stiffer (as expected) but no issues with rubbing or alignment. The turn-in response is greatly improved as well as body roll reduction.

Pros: improved turn-in response, reduced body roll

Cons: stiffer ride

Vehicle: Mazda

I replaced my Mazda RX8s struts with kyb gas-a-just shocks and really like them! For a rwd sports car that I occasionally autocross they haven’t let me down!

Pros: reliable, good performance
