Pitbull RC - Kronik shocks (or alternative)

[XashBE]

Looking for nice shocks and found these:

Anyone has experience with those shocks? Would they even be decent to run on road ?

Those are nice. 100 bucks too. High quality.

Probably not even meant for on-road just by looking at them. More for the crawler / trail trucks.

Would it be enough to simply put more fitting springs and oil to make them on road ?

If your talking about onroad as in touring car they will be popping out the hood and trunk.

not really. the shock bore and shafts are way too long. I run something like these on my TT02.

What's the car in question?

It's to transform my Asuga into a road drifter/power slider. So maybe 90/100 F/R. Resulting in 27/29mm lower.

Also getting hoons so that's 15mm lower as well.

Personally I would just do this. I mean, it works?

Yeah, worth a try for the lol but not a permanent solution

I did that once but it stays for literally 2 minutes and then you're left with badly looking tires (if you used white tape ok) which still don't have their original grip

Just chatted a bit with the seller how (obviously) told me they would be fine for on road it they fit.
But yeah, since he's a seller i'd like to double check with you people here.

So, since i would not have the issue of them popping out with my Asuaga since the shocks are outside of the body, getting the right oil and maybe different springs would suffice, no?

And they would be a perfect fit (color wise) since i want to go gunmetal/gold with my car for the transformation.

Anyone know of maybe some other decent shocks as well that would fit that description? (no, no MCDs, they are just way over the top ^^)
