My Shocks n Coil springs ruin my ride I installed 4 gabriel ultra shocks and 4 binstien lower coil springs in my car. Now i feel like im driving a truck. the ride is ugly every nik n cranny from the sroad makes a loud thumping noise behind my car plus it stops my music cause it shakes my whole car up. Is there any recommendation for the best quality in a ride for a 2002 camaro ss. i know its suppose to be a lil rough ride because of the type of car but this sounds very bad, my delphi stock shocks are better ride then this.

Man I have the same thing going on in my 99 T/A put same shocks with Eibach springs and its nice on a smooth road but any bump and its like the whole front end is going to rattle apart. Starting to **** me off, i've taken the front left of 3 times thinking the shock nut wasnt tight enough and it hasnt fixed anything. Im looking for a Strano kit, I hear alot of great things about Sam's stuff.

it does suck, but im pumping money in my 99 this summer and fixing everything. Both of my window motors are shot, valve springs are getting replaced, bigger stall, LS6 intake manifold and of course suspension parts.

if you want a "smooth" ride you should have left it stock. performance shocks will help around the corners, or when launching the car (depending on setup), but the ride wont be as smooth.
