I have these paired with eibach prokits. They look and feel very similar to the stock ones. However I did notice something different when I was installing them, the KYB shocks/struts had a slightly longer piston rod. I guess this is a good thing because you have more overall suspension travel which I think will help decrease the chance of blown shocks/struts (especially when lowered). So far I put roughly 7000KMs on them and I'm loving it, especially for the amount I paid :)

Bought some on ebay and installed them, slightly better than stock, hole for brake line is slightly smaller so a bit of filing is necessary if you're installing them yourself.
