      Re: what are some really good shocks for aveo?

      I have link for another brand. Its abt $580US for a set of 4 shocks. It fit in like original. Shock is white in color. But shipping will cost abt $120-150US I think since its quite heavy. Can order front or rear shock separately in pairs also. BUt the price of ordering separately is higher than buying all 4 together.

      Non adjustable but its another choice other than stock shocks.

      One good point for those with lowering spring. This is a shock more suitable for lowering spring, with better damper rate, original shocks spoil very fast due to higher wear and tear rate. With this shock, its built to withstand lower spring stress.

      What do you mean there's no turbo?

      I just got a deal for $499.99US shipped. 4 shocks. Brand is GAB. Its a performance shock. Good for those with lowering spring because the kyb shock (original shock) are way too soft.

      More like 5 miles... dealer to home. JK, I think these cars ride really well in stock form. I've had two and was very pleased with the ride quality.
