Which shocks TB on a Budget??? im looking at 450$ max and i was thinking of either KYB or TOKICO, Koni's are too much cheese, and i dont know about the different Bilstiens.
Re: Which shocks TB on a Budget??? The SLP bilstiens are a little "softer" on the valving then the regular Bilstiens and seem to be a good street shock but a little soft for aggressive use. The tokico adjustable shocks are a great shock in the bang for the buck department (go to www.ground-control.com and they give some opinions of each of the shocks they carry with the listings)...they seem to work well on the street and many guys have had limited success on track days and some racing events with them. They're not Koni's....but they are pretty good. Good Luck.
