probably fine. Ray has HKS Drag coilovers and they ride fine. it rides better than my VW. a bunch of people around here, or on here have drag shocks. i mean you have a camaro, if you expect it to ride like gramps’ caddy then maybe you should sell it and buy a caddy ---

No I know whatever I do, it will still ride like shit. Not worried about that. However my kyb’s dont ride all to well either. I might as well just get drag shocks. ---
