I have them all the way around and on cut fronts. I like them a lot. I have posted before that the ride is comparable to the Nakke kit at a particular setting. Maybe not the best setting, but a good ride nonetheless.

Rich, wopuld you rate the ride with the Monroes as softer or harsher than with the factory Tokico shocks?

Hard to say, Pete.
Rear may be a little softer, but I replaced 2 leaking stockers. Also, I think with the CA's and poly bushings, a tad softer is in order.
Front may be a little softer on compression, but has better rebound. Again, take that with a grain, cuz I cut my springs same time as I replaced fronts.
I see no reason you wouldn't like them.

I have only replaced my rears so far but I noticed the rear was a lot tighter afterwards and still is. Need to change the fronts sometime soon.

good info. I asked because I've noticed my car is alot softer. not as tight if you know what I mean. but since I spent the money and time to get it done, I guess i'm going to have to ride it out till they get crazy loose and go back to factory.
Has anyone tried these yet ?...http://www.gabriel.com/
