Will AGX struts work? Can anyone confirm if KYB AGX struts will bolt on a '07 Monte SS? I thought I have read either the front or rears would not bolt on. Can anyone using them let me know what, if anything needs to be modified to make them work?
I have a set on my 99 GTP and they are great. Thinking of getting some for the Monte. Thanks guys.

Yes they will work, however there is a slight issue with rear. Been running them for 2 yrs now with trouble free performance, the front and rears will bolt right up but the rears will have issue with tire rub on stock size, 235 50 18's. You need to run a 45 or 40 series tire to be safe imo.

I've been thinking lately how I want to swap over the AGX struts come spring time because the Delco replacements are pretty lousy, but I had a question about that slight problem with the rears rubbing on stock tire size.
If I had a wheel with a lower offset than the stock 18's, would I likely still have to change my tire size since a lower offset wheel would sit further out?
Right now I run the stock 18's in winter and in the summer I use my old American Eagle 192 wheels with a 235/55/17. Offset is +38.
