They are good for oem quality and performance. But they are in no way at the bilstein/koni level. Id its just a dd than buy em, but don't expect a huge diff at all over stock.

I have KYB AGX adjustables on my car. Bought them cause it was an adjustable shock on the cheap.
My opinion is these would make a great street handling shock, as stated above not on the level of Bilstiens or Konis but if your on a budget these would work well.
They are NOT for drag racing. The softest setting is about where a stock Decarbon is so they really won't work for drag racing.
I am going to QA1s when I do it again.
