I don't think they have one for Solara.

Moe, how do you like the KYB's? When I lower my car, I want to use KYB's and H&R's. I don't think the KYB AGX's are available for Solara/Camry, but the normal KYB's should handle up to 1.5" of drop according to an e-mail I got from KYB.

KYB's are (to me) extremely comfortable struts and seem to handle my eibach's really well...i get a nice stiff smooth ride and have no complaints or problems. L8r moe :evilbat:

They don't exist. If you want a better ride and better handling get the Tokico HP for the Solara. The KYB's are too soft sprung like stock.

A friend has the KYB and Eibach installed, and after only 11 months, the KYBs gave out, and he's not sure if KYB will honor the warranty since the Eibach is advertised as a 1.6" drop, outside the limits of 1.5". He regretted not waiting for the Tokicos.

Cool, thanks for the response. I want KYB's because a friend of mine had them on his car. They seemed very reliable, and rode very nice for the price. I know a lot of people on here seem to have Tokico's and they are fine, but I'm a little weary of getting Tokico's. The only reason is because a significant number of Mustang owners seem to have problems with them leaking, etc. Obviously, Mustang's are a different application, but it's still the same company and similar shocks.

the hp's should be fine with that drop. it's almost the same as the eibachs and vogtlands.
