Been reading around, everyone says to watch out if you have the sport suspension on a 95 GT but I haven't had the chance to check what mine is...calling dealer soon with VIN
 .I'm planning on KYB GR-2s and Tein S-Tech lowering springs...how good is the ride quality? I'm on stock 15s for now (will be putting new Yokohamas on mid-December...) but eventually I'll be getting larger 17" rims. How would the ride be on 15s? On 17s? Thanks in advance! |

seems to me like every post that I have came across that put kybs with teins were very happy and stated the ride was good and the kybs are best for lowering springs... plus while u still have 15's, that will be smoother than the 17's

They are cheaper for lowering springs and can hold up to the drop vs the oem struts but not BEST. If you are on a budget stick with the tein and kyb. If not upgrade your struts, maybe get a set of adjustable coilovers. -------------------- 98 Celica gt red- totaled deer
