I've just replaced the original shocks on my 95 Corolla at 100k miles with after-market KYB Excel-G (the Toyota dealer asked more than twice the price.) I expected the KYBs to give a good ride quality, since also the OEM shocks were make by KYB. The handling has improved, however the car rides very rough, I can feel every little bump on the road. It is *very* uncomfortable, especially on longer drives. Has anyone had the same experience with KYB? Is it possible they'll "loosen up" over time? Any solution to fixing this other than changing the shocks at the dealer?
