drag shock qustion

82 GT · 06-01-2001, 02:42 PM

What would be a better set of struts for the street? 70/30 or 90/10?
I heard 90/10 are pretty rough for the street but what about 70/30? Are they any better for the street?

Which set will provide a better ride for the street? I know neither one is really a street shock.
What is the difference between the two in terms of ride quality and handlling?

90/10's with BBK springs, no probs. daily driver. although the 70/30's would be a little smoother riding.
