I have had a set of H&R super sports sitting in the box and well I have finally gotten around to installing them.
Here' my Question:
Should I use the stock shocks witch have 10k on them OR replace them with something better??
Also If I replace them DO I HAVE to do an allinement ??
I'm told that if I just swop out the stock spings and THAT'S all I Don't need C.C. plates and I don't NEED an alinement?
Thanks

I'd go with either Bilsteins or Tokico adjustables. I believe the HR S.S. have a greater drop than other springs, therefore you might need C.C. plates. If they are installed, then you definitely need an alignment.

But you think I should go with adjustables no matter what!
Is Tokico the only shock that has adjustables?

Try some KYB AGX's.

I have had mine for over a year. They are nice, especially for the money.
