Default Need help on shocks...bilstein or edelbrock ias monotube

I need new shocks. I want the edelbrock ias monotube, but their 700. I read the specs and it states they adjust to the driving conditions of the road. Someone told me Bilstein are the best and their only 400 for 4. Anybody got any reviews for either one...Thanks.

i know we suck but i hear the Bilsteins are a really good deal for the money, they seem pretty stiff when needed but soft enough for driving, im going with them.

Koni for handling if that is what you are after, they are awesome and work great with lowering springs.

Sam Strano Bilsteins will be good for stock springs and ride comfort

Koni > Bilstein > KYB AGX > Tokico blues > everything else for this car (actually, I think Tokico Illuminas are available for our rear, which would be better than the AGX, but they aren't available for the front for sure)

If you don't want to spend a ton, and you plan to stay with stock or 1LE/SLP springs, Bilstein will be good. Otherwise you'll need Koni.

There are a million other threads on this. I suggest you search.
