I purchased the specially valved KYB GR-2 rear shocks from VB&P for my VB&P rear composite spring. I have decided after less than 100 miles, to stay with my Bilstein Sports. I paid $100 + shipping of $17. I will sell them for $75 + shipping. That is a 25% savings. Actual miles I put on them is closer to 50. Part # VBP-218.
These are NEW shocks. They are softer than the Bilstein Sports and stiffer than the Bilstein HD. I did a rebound test on all 3. Time is from full compression to full open. Sports were 23 seconds, VB&P KYB GR-2 were 15 seconds, and Bilstein HD were 5 seconds. Times did vary by one or two seconds as my testing was based on my counting
