Does anyone know if the shocks and struts on the 2018 base GT are the same or improved to prior years? I am going to have steeda sport progressive springs installed on my new 2018 GT and am wondering if the Steeda non-adjustable Shocks and struts would be much of an upgrade to the stock ones? Thanks.

I wouldn't worry about the shock and struts. Add the parts we discussed with the springs and it will be an awesome ride.

The Steeda shocks and struts are certainly a upgrade.
In closing, they will work just fine with the original set up.

will this work none adustable camber kits? cuz i have the stock onds
The camber plates allow for perfect camber adjustments. Since you are running the Steeda Dual rate springs, I highly recommend the Steeda camber plates.
We are running a Memorial day sale right now.

Thank you,

With the camber plates you will be able to match left to right perfectly.

Also ,if you want to run less aggressive camber like 1.3 neg, it will be hard to do without camber plates. With those springs you are going to come in around 1.5 neg camber.
pm your contact info and i will go over with you in more detail.

Thanks,
