Hey guys,
How good are Monroe gas shocks with king lows ?
I was told cost $150 each or gave me options for everything with $115 each, told me just standard monroe shocks. Sound bit pricey to me http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif

Hahah, you could've bought mine for $200 for everything if ya had the cash, and still in Perth http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif

But yeah, they're nice and comfy ride for daily driving. Handles a lot better than stock, but no where near takumi spec. It's good for small amounts of fun, but not a lot. Basically low end "sports" and handling upgrade.

Unless this is for a FWD corolla? Then I wouldnt know how it feels to drive.

hehe yeh mate its fwd, im pretty sure their rubbing with the stock ones when ever i go over bump too fast, unless its something else
Doesnt handle too bad, fwd feels so weak to drive, like im just gonna snap something in the front lol

Totally agree with Berserker. Monroe GT and King lows are good for daily. A little fun, but not annoying at all. Cheap too.
