I put on some BBK progressive rate springs a couple of months ago, and I'm wanting to add shocks/struts now. I know that there dozens of suspension threads out there, and I think that I've read most all of them. My car never sees the strip, only cause there isn't one for a 100+ miles. I like to corner hard and fast, and I'm looking for a good shock/strut combo to go with these BBK springs. They definitely gave a good drop, probably close to the 1.5 inches that they advertise. I really don't have the cash for Bilsteins, but I know that everyone says that they are the best. What's the best alternative with my setup...Tokico, Koni, KYB? I've also heard of people using Fox shocks/struts. Is that only a good idea with factory shocks/struts or should I get aftermarket Fox parts? Thanks for the advice and I'll let you know what I decide.
