Can KYB-GR2 shocks and struts handle lowering springs?
I found a local seller selling a set of tenzo springs and i want to lower my car but not willing to dish out the big coin for coilovers. Plus I just got a full KYB-GR2 suspension setup going on and theyre only a few weeks old. I would be doing a 1.5" maybe 2" drop. Will lowering springs cut my shocks life?
