Rating 5.0

Make sure the shocks you buy ars KYB. These cars are heavy and have a tendency to eat cheap shocks.

Pros: Good for heavy cars
Cons: Cheap shocks wear fast

  • Bottoming:
Rating 4.5

Ive had the same set of KYB Excels on front/rear for the last 70,000mi. They have held up incredibly well. Stiff enough to handle payload but responsive enough to mitigate a pothole on commuter roads. I would buy again, the price is great and they've lasted years.

Pros: held up well, handles payload, responsive, great price, lasted years
Mileage: 70000 km

Rating 4.0

Kyb are some of the best shocks you can get in terms of quality and lifespan. That being said they’re known for being stiffer. I happen to like it since it minimizes body roll and improves handling. Better loaded performance when towing or hauling heavy too. But you will notice it ride a little harsher.

Pros: good quality, long lifespan, minimizes body roll, improves handling, better loaded performance
Cons: stiffer ride, a little harsher

KYB Strut assembly

Bought new struts from kyb, one was really stuff and looked new the other one was not as stiff and had a lot of dust on it meaning it could have been sitting for a while, is possible the less stuff one is damaged and I have to return it or is it normal for there to be a little bit of variance between the sides. I was pumping them manually as I know you have too and that's when I noticed the difference..

Pros: one strut stiff and new
Cons: other strut less stiff, dusty; inconsistent quality
