KYBs are terrible with the H&R springs as well.
IMHO the H&Rs are too low and too stiff.

Just remember that you need performance shocks with a
lowering kit.  Bilsteins are ~$80 ea from the busdepot
(cheapest place I've found).  I dunno if I'd trust
Boge's or KYB's with a lowering kit.  I put Boge's
temporarily on with my H&R kit for the car, and blew
them in 2 weeks.

Just because you have an opinion, doesn't mean that anyone wants to hear it
