i just bought some Competition Engeneering 3 way's for the rear and i am thinking of getting some shocks for the front. i see lakewood has fixed rate shocks for ~$92 ea. i would like to get some adjustable's, but the fronts get fairly pricey.

anyone have any recommendations? i guess i could always look for some slightly used adjustables.

Unless you are into corners, I would say 90/10's on the front and 50/50's in the back would be good for a street/strip. That is how I have mine set up, no problems.

the car is set up more for drag racing than anything. i haven't installed the rears yet, but i plan on starting with the 50/50 setting first.
