Kyb Vs. Monroe

[SuperCoupe400]

I've narrowed my search for replacement shocks to KYB GR2's or Monroe Sensatrac's. I'm not looking to get any improved handling, cornering, agility or anything performance-wise from my car. I just want it to ride smooth and gentle, like a Lexus should - taking potholes and asphalt ripples like a pro.

With that in mind, which of these two shocks is going to give me a ride closest to stock? Or is there another I haven't named here (besides the $210/ea Front & $251/ea Rear OEM ones the stealership wants to sell me)?

I believe KYB is the manufacturer of the the OEM shocks, they'll probably be your best bet. You can probably find all four for about $300 or so total on ebay.

if i remeber correctly, when i went to the dealership and bought shocks. it was only like $75 each if that. maybe you should call a different dealership or find an online dealership.

I just had my shocks replaced with Monroe. They work great.
