    What should i couple with these?

    I just bought some DropZone lowering springs, *note, springs! not coilovers*, and i need to know what kind of struts would go good with them. They lower the car about 2.5" from stock, or something around there.

    The coilovers are rated around 300% stiffer than stock springs, but these aren't the coilovers. I'm told that the springs are actually only about 50-70% stiffer than stock springs. Though if anyone actually knows, please let me know!

    So, what kind of struts should i pair up with these?

    How long have you had your KYB struts and dropzones on your car? Both of them together, not seperate.. Do they last?

    I rode tokicos and dropzone 2.5s for over a year... I loved it, I just decided that 2.5 was to low... But I liked the ride and the handling...
