I love the look of my Tiburon Coupe but find the ride harsh & choppy; are KYB AGX's available?

Any other suggestions?

I run the standard 16" wheels & have just replaced the Michelen tyres with the same ones. At 22,000 miles they were all wearing at the edges, especially the outer edges of the front tyres. Under inflating would have worn them worse at the edges; will try it though as the ride is too harsh.

Trying to find out IF KYB AGX's are available - anyone know the part numbers?

AGX's are not available. There are however, other KYB's out for our cars. You'll see them for really good prices on ebay.

A user at www.rdtiburon.com is currently doing a group buy on Eibach suspension parts, including springs and struts. Look in our Group Buy section over there or look for our member named Blacktibs, he's the owner of flyrydes.com .

Try to stay away from the Michelins, the tires that come stock on the Tibby are quite poor. If you are having wear on the outside edges have your alignment checked, my rear tires had this problem where they wore faster than the fronts and they wore on the outside edges to the point of being bald on the outside and having 3/32nds left on the inside. My alignment in the rear was severely off and the dealership had to fix it.
