KYB GR-2 Struts
Strangely enough there's no review on these even though everyone and his dog has them, so here goes.
I bought mine new from modernperformance and they made it safely through YUL/CDG/FCO and finally TUN (and got through customs heheh).
Fit and finish is quite nice but I find them to be visually a bit of a letdown as they look just like OEM struts.
They obviously fit right in however they seemd to raise my car's rear end a litlle (I have major weight redux over the rear so that could explain it).
Ride is nice albeit a litlle bit harsher than the stock struts and they cope very well with Tunisian road conditions. They don't make any noise and handling improves slightly.
In all a great OEM replacement as better and cheaper but I don't see how this is a performance strut. Stay tuned for how they hold up with lowering springs.
