    ST Suspension 47039 Shock Kit

    Has anyone heard of this or used it in the past? It looks decent and is priced decent as well, and appears to be shorter than bilstein sports which is what I was originally going to go with.

    Here is the link on amazon

    Thats a fair price. I have their lowering springs paired up with bilstein sports and it feels great. My inserts do seem a little tall for how the car settled so this could be a great alternative to the kyb kits I've seen similarly priced.

    Check out the st spring thread that's still floating around for more info on the companies quality then grab em and give us a review!

      I am familar with the company and saw a lot of threads on the springs and sways but nothing on the actual shocks. That is why I was interested, I just saw their measurements of the shocks/struts compared to the bilsteins and noticed they were lower. I would be pairing these up with IE3's and might be an alternative to bilstein sports.

        i had my st coilovers on its lowest setting for 2 months and blew the shocks... lowest setting couldn't even cover a 17" wheel gap with stretched tires. had to send them to st and payed a little less then $400 to get them rebuild (ONLY FRONT 2). now in my case it was on my e46 but i would definitely NOT recommend st's for that reason.
