My truck only had 80K when I changed the front shocks and coils with KYB. Totally different ride than before. It now steers like it's on rails with very little steering wheel input. Change the coils no matter your choice.

Pros: different ride, steers well
Mileage: 80000 km

I change mine to bridgestone xm2plus size 185/50/15, rim 15/6.5j/et40. Monroe absorber with eibach spring. And put on ultra racing engine bar and rear antirollbar. Handling so nice, feel the different. I use for daily drive.

Pros: Handling so nice

No, I put a set of KYB Gas-A-Justs in it with the stock springs after i discovered a weepy front shock.

Pros: affordable alternative to OEM

As for the continental kit affecting the handling, I really don't think it makes a difference, the handling is terrifying! There is a long 90 degree curve near me, and when I try to push the car thru it, I get body lean, tire squeal, and understeer that slowly gives way to a neutral attitude.

Pros: balances out the weight
Cons: terrifying handling, body lean

Rock Auto had Monroe shocks & struts for $12 & $8/ea for it, so I bought new. Turns out that's what came out of the car and his weren't too bad but let's face it, they're garbage.

Pros: cheap price
Cons: garbage quality
Vehicle: Volkswagen Fox
