Re: Skunk2 struts...anyone have these?
Hahah, welll guess I'm odd man out in this debate.
I OWN a set and I love them. Little stiff, but they did wear in a little; however, they still deliver a firmer ride. Mike from LSD told me they'd be a little stiffer, but he assured me I'd like them and that Blues and GR-2s were just aftermarket stockish struts (as well as other people saying this too).
I like them, but to each thier own. I've ridden in heated springs, cut springs, junk coilovers, so I've expierenced some rough rides. The price seemed right and if I bought aftermarket I wanted them to have a little stiffness to them as well so I can't complain.
It's cold out and I noticed when it's cold my suspension seems stiffer and almost "tight" so the weather along with BRAND NEW struts may be making you a have a little harder ride than expected.
At first, I'll admit I was a little upset, but then they softened a tad and I enjoyed the solid ride they provided. I'm pleased.

See? Little disheartening at first, but I like them alot! $200 is a really good deal. Where from? I forget what Mike charged me, but it was still a good deal compared to the other places.
