hey fellas, i have a set of s. techs coming and i was wondering is it worth the money to switch out the shocks as well and if so what type do you recomend? i would have gone for the coilovers but no matter how i look at it i just don't have the money. thanks for the help.

 

I have stock shocks w/ mine and have rode on them for over 6 months, no problems.

 

good to hear.
I was just curoius what other people had done, thanks

 

There's a bunch of threads regarding this and a lot of people switch out the stock rears for Monroes. Which is what I did. The stock shocks with the S-techs made for a stiffer ride than I could live with on a daily basis. I take a lot of crappy brick roads and square edge bumps were very harsh. I switched to Monroe 5870's and it really improved the ride. Another choice in the Monroe family are the 5987's.

 

I'm runnin s. techs with stock struts and shocks, and a strut bar and i'm happy with it

 

thanks for the input, i am low on cash but i will definitely look into the monroes.

 

I have ridden the stock shocks with S-techs for over two years---the ride does not bother me at all. Many have reported they like the Monroes so you should do a search.
