Shock absorbers?
« on: 15 February 2013, 10:26:03 »

Hi,

which shock absorbers do you think are better KYB or Anschler for my omega 2.2 2003?

Anschler are bit cheap but really dont care about the money, just need to get the good ones on!

Appreciate your help!

Thanks,

Are you looking to lower the car or get a stiffer ride?

For me the standard GM shocks are excellent  :y

for more stiffer ride I would say, right now its quite low specially when driving with 3 passengers at the back. i assume i would also have to replace springs as they are bit spongy, i would say,

Few here use Bilstein B4's - They stiffen things up a bit, along with some Eibach springs?

Kyb used to do a "sport" shocker as a direct replacement for Oem  :y
Same length I believe but around 15% stiffer  ;)
