KIA FORTE SHOCKS REPLACEMENT

[KkMICHELIN]

 

Any Kia Forte owner who has replaced their original shocks? Appreciate yr feedbck on wat's good out there for a firm and good handling... don't like coilover though.

 

Tks!

Y dont try fitting koup shocks? It is selling at 100-110 per piece at ming ghee

 

Its slighty harder than stock forte

I would say stick to your factory-fitted stock suspension if not going for hardcore driving, test-driven friend's stock cerato forte 1.6A EX and the shocks are enough to provide a comfortable daily drive.

Good suggestion.... any idea what make are KOUP shocks? (MANDO?)

 

I was keen on KYB SR gas shocks (which offers a firm ride too) but after checking their catalogue, I think these are still not available for Forte.

 

Thanks!

I'm also driving a 1.6A EX but my shock is very soft.... thought of changing to Koup shock... Anyone can give feedback on Koup shock???????
