well i just got new tires put on, nothing expensive and i just realized how much body roll i have on my car which leads me to believe i need new shocks. The weird thing is i never noticed it before with my old tires which i wore out to the wires.
The only logical conclusino i can come up with is taht since i had no traction with my old tire, they sled with the turn and i couldn't notice the body roll as much because not much grip and since i get Alot more grip with these tire, the body roll is much more noticable. So i guess i need to shell out some money for new shock and while im at i, i think i'll drop it down a inch or so. Any ideas on what shocks will stabalize my car without sacrafising comfort that much. dunno just thought i'd share my experience. kthanxbye |

The easiest, most common, cheapist.. Sporline springs, and then KYB gr2's .. That should only cost aroudn 400 bucks.. then put on your self, will make a big dif.. Also Look into some upgraded sway bars.. you can get a front and rear set from nopionline, for around 240 .. That will be a sweet set up.
