Im having a hard time on which shock/strut I m going to use on the 96 Hawk.. what do you guys suggest Bilstein or the KYB AGX 5 way adjustable ones.?? Going to order them on monday. I use the hawk as a daily driver but like to do some racing/fast cornering on the streets on the weekend. So what do you guys suggest, they go for about the same price, and i have bilsteins on there now, but they have been worn out since i bought the car.. THX GUYS
what are other cheap alternative shock/struts I can get???? Trying to keep it under $375

If you're going to see any track time, go with Bilsteins. If it's going to be a car used only to get you around town, you can get by With KYB, but I'm not big on their AGX line. I have GasAJust shocks and my car with Hotchkis springs, and it rides like stock.
