which shocks with drop zones
like the title says. I just order a set of drop zone springs for my car and it could use some new shocks as well. I was going to go wtih monroe sensetracs but after some reading those might not be the best. Any suggestions for a decent shock for a lowered car that won't break the bank?
Thanks,

if you're looking at stuff in the sensatrac price range, grab yourself some kyb's. probably the best you're going to find in that price range

Do they perform well on a lowered car?

many people use them with the eibachs with good results, i'm in the process of installing my drop springs (forget which brand, got em from the classifieds here) and using GR2s on the fronts and gas adjusts on the rear.

Re: which shocks with drop zones
just want to give you heads up on the dropzones. they lower the front a ton. way more then advertised. prolly an inch more. and mine raised the rear about 4 inch's. thats just on the half dozen or more people that i know have installed them and uninstalled them. needless to say i uninstalled and got me some sportlines. as far as shocks and struts i have kyb agx struts up front and qa1 24 way adjustables in rear. love the way they handle. you will need some some aftermarket upper strut mounts to help out with more strut travel in the front.

Re: which shocks with drop zones
Anybody else with dropzones have this problem. I did some research before buying them and didn't see anything about this?
