What kind of shocks should i buy

I lowered my 06 G35 sedan with Eibach pro kit. I want to install shocks that will handle well, but will have a comfortable soft ride. One of the original front shocks blew out. Does anyone know what shocks I should get?

Are coilovers out of your budget?

They are worth it IMO.

Can you pair aftermarket lowering springs with KYB GR2 shocks?

GR-2's are a stock replacement shock. So it will technically work, but it is not the best decision to compensate for lowering springs

You may be able to pick up some used OEM 350z shocks that would work. They are shorter than stock g35 shocks and it'd be a cheap replacement. Plus they ride very nice and could probably be had for less than $100 on my350z.

I asked because GR2s are more inexpensive than others.

I'm using aftermarket 350z springs with my stock G35 sedan shocks, if I use 350z shocks instead...will the drop be even lower than it is now?
