Why Choose IMS Shocks:

The IMS Series represents a step up in performance, control, and heat resistance. With a large 2.6″ monotube body and high-pressure nitrogen design, IMS shocks deliver better fade resistance and more responsive damping—perfect for drivers who demand more from their suspension. Whether you’re tackling rough forest roads, carrying camping gear, or building a mild overland setup, IMS offers noticeable improvements over twin-tube systems. They’re great for people who hit the trails more often and want better on-road handling without going full race-spec.
