What are some good shocks for a lowered car? Working at O'Reilly's I can get KYB, Monroe, Rancho, and I think we can get Tokiko. Out of these 4, which one has the best weight transfer and ride quality for a car with a Pro-Kit? Also, what are some other options to choose from? I have already looked into Bilstein's, Hal's, and Koni's, which are out of the question.
Thanks
Ryan

Bilsteins are about the best for the street- the fronts are about $100 apiece which is about the same as the Tokico's pricewise-of the ones you listed the Tokicos would be your best option- the rear Tokicos are a bit less tho

I have the pro kits and revalved bilsteins and It's an awesome setup but they were pricey. Regular bilsteins work pretty well I hear and I've seen some good deals on them (ebay). I've also heard some good things about koni's but never tried them myself. Really haven't heard much about the ones you listed. Guess I'm not much help.

If you are going to lower your car with Eibach sorings, then call Sam @ Strano and he will set you up with some revalved Bilstiens

I like KYB
Hals are bad ass. They plant the tires like mofo. I love mine and won't go to anything different.:D

I have Eibach ProKit springs.
I have SLP Bilsteins. I am very happy with them. Great handling and soft daily driving.
I had KYB g-a-s before. Excellent race car like handling but very rough daily driving.
