As in most 3rd world countries, we have a lot of potholes. i mean alot! What gets done is that the city will fill them in with a couple shovel fulls of asphalt and pack it down. of course its never a smooth job so its pretty much another mini-speed bump in the road. But after one good downpour of rain, it will become a hole again and they can start all over.

I know i need new shocks, but am i supposed to feel every bump and jolt wobbling up through to my steering wheel, or is something worn out in the steering column causing me to feel them even more? Thanks.

An alignment might be a good idea.

I'm going to have it done again but this is only on the rough roads. on the freeway and on newly paved roads (both low and high speeds) its very smooth and there's no wobble at all.

tie rod end links possibly? or it could just be how it is... when i have my normal 180 seris wheels/tires on the car it rides descent, when i put the 235's on the car pulls left n right when i hit bumps due to the wider width, i see you have 215's on yours so thats most likely your problem... downfall to having wheels that weren't designed to be on your car i guess
