After two years on the Tein S-Tech springs, the shocks on our car are rattling like a mofo going over bumps now. I initially thought it was a tie rod end or a ball joint, but I had the car on a lift and everything checked out fine. Anyway.....

I was initially going to go with Bilstein shocks/struts, but they're only available in the touring for stock ride height. So I'm back to the drawing board here. I'm looking for a performance minded shock that's meant for lowered cars, and I'm not coming up with a whole lot.

Coil Overs are NOT an option right now. Too much money. So, what are you guys using?

Many people side with the KYB gas shocks/struts. They work well with the height the tein springs provide. Just make sure in advance if your fronts are rebuildables or sealed before you go out and purchase yourself a set.
