Valving controls how the strut responds to inputs. Re-valving is having it disassembled and changed.strut is a dampener.It dampens the movement of the suspension to return it to a neutral state.it should do this as quickly as possible, while still allowing proper travel in the suspension. so you can re valve them to match the spring rate and the vehicle itself. So you'd have to find out the weight of the vehicle with you in it and fuel, then weigh it, pick springs, find rebound and compression rates and have the struts valved for that.OR you can just have it set to the billstein passenger car HD setting and run some vogtlands.

Yup, then have them revalved for whatever springs you run.

You could buy used GXP struts for less than what new ones cost.

Unsure how they fit though.

bilsteins have an internal bump stop which means it can't be trimmed.

I'd have to rip mine off and check the travel on them.

Might be more limiting than AGX's.

However I hear two things about AGX's, they work well and they can't handle track days.

Any other strut options are now custom.

If going coilovers, its not that bad really.

they do,but they'll raise your car.

My car rides at stock height with vogtland springs.

But to be frank, I can't see the GXP struts being different from the aftermarket ones.

However, unless you're getting a great deal, they're still used struts.

I got mine from bilsteincanada.com (Essex distributors).

Great to deal with.
