    i also had my fronts replaced, some years ago. i opted for the cheaper white ones. up to now, medyo matigas pa rin, hindi tulad ng oem.
    i probably should have opted for the more expensive, heavy-duty black ones. they will probably have dampened better.

    the rear ones, unlike the fronts na namimili ng model car, are generic as can be.
    they also cost much less. 1K each lang when i bought mine some time back.
    get the more expensive ones, bai. they will probably dampen better than the cheap ones.

    Ano yung mga recommended models na comparable ang performance (or better) sa stock?
    Eto kasi reason mostly sa CASA nalang bumili but if this brand has these and cheaper than the CASA, that will help sa mga plan mag replace.

    KYB have Excel G, Premium and Gas a Just as OE replacement models.

    There's also AGX (adjustable), SR Special (premium upgrade), Lowfer (lowered), Extage (premium adjustable), Skorched4 (lifted), Tenaforce (heavy duty) and JAOS BattleZ (offroad lifted). All are upgrade versions of the usual OE replacement.

    Ride quality will depend on your suspension as a whole. Springs, shocks and even your wheels and tires all have their hand in it.

    Cheapest is Premium (weird no?) Coz it is not gas charged like the others.

    Followed by K'lassic (forgot this one) and Excel G. Then Gas a just which is mono tube.

    Skorched4 and Tenaforce made in Thailand but heavy duty so more expensive. Skorched4 only for lifted applications.

    New SR, Extage, Lowfer, AGX and JAOS BattleZ are upgrade versions made in Japan so they are more expensive.

    New SR prices are close to Excel G for PPVs/pickups but a lot higher for CUVs and cars.

    Kaso not all shock types are available for all models. Limited lang options. Yung Excel G ang pinakamarami ang application.

    For a 19 in wheels setup, ano ma recommend nyo dito?
    Hyundai Santa Fe 2020 unit.
    Just for my reference if I am going to replace na.
    Hopefully tatagal pa to up to 5 yrs but by the condition of the road I usually drove in, parang malabo aabot 5 yrs.

    I think for KYB only Excel G is available for this. Sorry no 1st hand experience with it. IIRC KDM Hyundais and Kias have Sachs as OE. Not sure with the HARI units.
