    So im going to be getting a set of 2.5 16" doublebypasses piggybacks from you pretty soon. The question is should I get Fox or King? I currently running Fox allround but not set on them if there is a reason to run something else. What are your thoughts?

    The age old question...

    This has been covered many, many, many times here on TW, and we get asked all the time. Ultimately...it's a matter of your personal preference. Whether it's brand preference (King or Fox), color preference (Blue or Black) or just matching what you already have...

    If you're running all Fox, I'd just stay with Fox. There are pros & cons to each, but you're splitting hairs, so just pick one. I'm confident you'll be satisfied either way. Good luck!

    I kinda figured that what the answer would be, but I seem to hear alot around here that I should run kings instead. Thought maybe I was missing something.

    Ill shoot you a PM.
