Have an '05 EXT TB that I installed Bilstein's on and honestly they have been on for so long I don't remember what they felt like new. Right now they have about 70k miles on them and I can feel every bump, pebble or groove in the road but no typical worn shock bounce. Cornering is a blast with my Bilstein's but the rest of the ride is too harsh. I guess I am looking for as best of both worlds as I can get. I know I may have to give up cornering for ride comfort. Rock has KYB with factory rebates right now and I am wondering if they will fit by needs. I plan on replacing the stabilizer/sway bar links at all 4 corners as well at the same time. I do have a good set Michelin tires. Any other suggestions other than Bilstein's?

Before you go down that road, I have to ask... What kind of tires are you running?

I was having this exact problem on my wives Aztek. I also replaced the struts with KYB.. Didnt fix the problem. Its a problem I have been randomly chasing for 2 years.

TIres were do for replacement at the start of this winter.. PROBLEM SOLVED!
