Default Simple Suspension Setup

Hi Everyone,

My stock struts and shocks are out. I looking for a close to OEM setup but with a softer ride. Nothing adjustable. Not changing the stock springs out.


The car is sitting on 18' XXR's with 295 tires. I need to change out the rear tires so I may get less wider tires all around

Can anyone recommend something.

IMO,any aftermarket shock is gonna give you a firmer ride.
Best to go with OEM.Getting from a dealer there gonna be VIN specific.
You may want to check the specs on OEM shocks.I believe they are made by KYB.
Sure would be cheaper to get a KYB shock than a OEM.

Your choice of tire brand is a part of getting a softer ride.The OEM
Bridgestones ride fairly hard.Consider Hankook V-12'S.
