I suggest getting the correct wide white bias ply tires for your car from Coker. They will look right and ride right. However, the tires are good for only about 15-20K miles and aren't meant for slaloming through the cones. If high mileages or aggressive cornering are anticipated you might want to consider radials for convenience and durability. Any good radial will work - 235/75 x 15 size. Downside is the Ride quality is not as forgiving as bias ply. Just be sure they are rated for TOURING not for PERFORMANCE, or you will get an even harsher ride. Although you can't get the correct ride quality nor whitewall width with radials, they certainly handle better and last longer. You pays yer money and makes yer choices. There is only one choice for shocks: KYB's. Go here for all the info you will need: http://www.imperialclub.com/Repair/Springs/install.htm KYB's are sold in many places. I got mine from Performance Suspension Technology. At that time, they were $119 for a set of four. Free shipping. Order Toll-free: (800) 247-2288.
