Ok my only question is that i have a 92 grand am se and it gives me the choice of getting sport susp. or non. sports. So what is it that im suppose to choose? And if you guys know of anywhere i can get struts for any cheaper than 52 dollars or shocks cheaper than 21 dollars for kybs then let me know. By the way the struts are monroes.

Well I will tell you KYB, eversince I upgraded to KYB I will buy nothing less. And FYI you won't find KYB under 21 bucks because that is lower than dealer cost, believe me I would know!

If i told you i would have to kill you j/k but the shocks are kyb and the struts are monroe ok and i guess i will let the secret out. I get them from.............................................. .................................................. ...............................www.autopartsgiant. com They will ship any order that is 50 dollars or more out for free. It sounds good to me but no one has answered my original question about the sport suspension thing.

I wouldn't mix and Match Monroe's with KYB's the KYB's for the rear are very stiff your suspension will change a bunch, The Monroes are what comes stock on the GA, your car will be stiff as hell in the rear and the front will be too soft. If that's what you want go for it, but ride quality will suck.

I just looked at that website, the items from KYB for 21 bucks, is a pair of shock boots, not the shocks themselves.
