A fren of mine who's driving an older version of Honda City is having problems with his front absorbers. He's looking at changing to Monroe shocks that are branched to:
1) Sensa-Trac
2) Reflex

He's wondering which is better. He's not really into performance as he's looking more at comfort compared to performance (totally dislikes bumpy rides). I actually recommended stock suspensions but he wanted to try out something that has the best of both worlds that can provide both comfort with slight improved handling capabilities. Anyone have used these types before? Care to advise? Thanks.
 
used sensatrac on a wira 1.6 before. confortable while still can attack the corners. if want confort first and performance second this is the absorber.
 
i using sensatrax now in my kenari..feel not so good.....

but i not sure is because of absorber or d tire....coz juz change from 165/50/R15 to 175/50/RF15 tires

Thanks for the tip Typical Guy...unlike my fren...i'm the type thats looking for superb performance with comfort...which is why i'm going for TiTAN this June...so looking forward to it. Now got exams so studying still...no time to do it. My fren here is much more interested in comfort. For him, he'd much prefer COMFORT No.1, performance 2nd...anyways...thanks for ur infos...cheers
