    Need recommendations for quality replacement rear shocks would be considered direct or very close replacements for the "firm ride tuned shocks" that accompanied the F41 package. The air shocks are getting ditched next week.

    I don't need anything too fancy but something (close to) comparable.

    Thanks!

    I used KYB's and they are nice, firm, but not terrible. I don't know how the originals were as mine still had the originals, but they were flat...

    Thanks for the input. :)

    Do you have the same factory suspension? F41?

    I do, but unfortunately I cannot tell the difference between the ride qualities because my original (original to the car) shocks were shot when I got my car. It rides nice, especially with the new springs.

    Thank you!

    I'm looking forward to driving this thing when it's actually transferring weight correctly and the geometry isn't all thrown off. It's more or less like a small truck now.

    Which KYB?
