Bilstein shocks are right up there with Michelin for durability. I have original Bilsteins on my 220k Vette and 220k Mercedes. Still shocking fine. One time many years ago I had a set of Bilstein on a Mercedes with 210k. Out of a feeling that shocks should be changed with that kind of mileage...

I bought 4 Michelin Pilot tires awhile back, 275/40x17 and wanted to let the forum know how my experience has been with them. As most realize the Michelin are usually a few dollars more. Is it worth the difference......you decide Usuage: Due to my maturity :-) I drive in a normal fashion. Never...
