For Cars & Light Trucks

GR-2/Excel-G gas shock absorbers, strut cartridges and complete struts are affordably priced, twin tube designs that blend a smooth ride quality with enhanced road control. A low-pressure gas charge and patented check valve minimize foaming and aeration to help make sure the ride stays consistent, even under rough conditions. When you want to blend like-new vehicle ride qualities with a little more control, you want KYB GR-2/Excel-G gas series shock absorbers, strut cartridges or complete struts.

I use my car as a daily driver the H&R sport springs are great but the gr2 shocks and struts wore out very quickly. I''ve inslalled 2 sets and they all were rattling and bouncing after 15,0000 mi. -- Review submitted: 2009-08-16

I''ve really enjoyed the H&R springs and the KYB shocks and struts on my Maxima. Together with the strut brace and rear sway bar that I''ve previously installed (and Goodyear F1 summer tires), the car now handles with a much greater degree of confidence. Cornering is flat and the "feel" of the car overall is of a machine that is firmly planted to the road. Admittedly, the ride is harder now, but I''ve gotten used to it (it is only when I''m a passenger in someone else''s car do I notice the difference). But the diminished ride quality is certainly not excessive, and the improvements in the handling characteristics more than make up for it (at least it does for me). Overall, H&R and KYB components are high quality and deliver what they promise, namely, a better handling, more responsive car. I love driving my Max and look forward to many more years of superior handling with this car. -- Review submitted: 2009-07-13

Very nice pieces. Put GR-2''s on all corners of my Sable Wagon, the beast is actually fun to drive. Firm enough without beating you to death on the ugly bits. A set of air boosters in the rear coil springs picked the back end up where it needed to be and help with a load of amplifiers. Great stock-replacement bits if you like a little fun. -- Review submitted: 2009-06-30
