aftermarket suspension

Hey All!!

Great Site!! Most informative, and definately has the drool factor perfected. I'm getting ready to upgrade my S4's ride/stance and wondered what mid-range adjustable shocks ppl have had good luck with? Thanks in advance...

For day to day use, some track/autox/drag driving, it is hard to go wrong with KYB AGXs and Racing Beat springs.

I heard mixed reviews about KYB's, some like them & some don't. What's another good alternative suspension combo? Preferably a spring & shock combo. I'm on Tein springs right now but I'm going to swap them out for something else, I'm wondering if anyone has tried a Koni Yellow & Ground Control set up on there FC's & was it any good?

With any suspension, some will like it and some won't. But keep in mind that most who say that one is better then the other have not actually tried both in their car (me included).

What is your primary use for the car? KYB makes the OEM struts for the car, and the AGX is the upgraded adjustable version.

In my case it will be a highly-spirited daily driver..... am looking for coilover/shocks for my solution... has anybody heard good or bad review on Godspeed setup? not sure if my build budget will allow Tein's unless they're used
