I would like to know how these two shocks rate against each other, I am running Hp's (or Blues) right now and I dont think I like them, I appreciate everyones .02$.

KYB = OEM replacement
HP Blues = Good Struts, but designed for low spring rates
ZX2 S/R = Best of the 3. Valved for 297#F and 182#R spring rates.

The Zx2 S/R's also happen to be the cheapest of the 3.

Sweet, well you might have to educate me here, what do you mean by low spring rate, I am a noob at suspension. Does that mean that they are just designed for a stiffer or lower spring?
