Depends what you want, comfort or performance.

Stock is usually on the comfort side unless those performance cars. Coil is for performance and handling plus aesthetic due to lower body, is stiff so you have to compromise on comfort.

I on the kiasu side, 17" wheel with strut bars and coils, able to brake on time but still bang by taxi. So thinking changing back to stock for more comfort plus the big gap between the wheel and the fenders.

Pricing is about there. AutoSaver also has a promo on @$449.50, not sure if it includes front rubber bump.

My Shocks OK, but Rubber bump worn and I KIV almost 1.5 years already.

Good shock absorbers can help u during emergency evasive action.

Before change car tends to have but harder to control, with stiffer shock, control is much better

Do change your SA

Checked w both AS and TCM, all in TCM package is $615 no hidden cost. AS price for Front ant Rear add up slightly less, but does not include rubber bumps. With the bumps in will be more expensive than TCM.

The pair of rubber bump, TCM quoted, $160.  So plus $615, become $775 exclude gst.   :mad:  if rubber bump serve certain functions, why don't they be inclusive? :crying:
