Shocks....
i need some advice on some shocks, I got a 1991 and im pretty sure these are the stock shocks.....well i want a shock that does not raise the car, want to keep it just like it is, but at the same time i need to improve the ride quality....also i want the handling to be frim and responsive...if anyone has any experience or insight on a set of shocks please recommend them.....thanks

I went with these and I love them, keep in mind I had the Billestein's with the Z51 option and these destroy the Billestein's

Custom Valved super Shocks and Struts
Stock Corvette shocks are very harsh. We have found by revalving the shocks they are much less harsh. Test lap times came down nicely, the car was easier to drive and the ride quality improved dramatically.
TPiS Super Shocks are finished in two-part polyurethane paint for durability and appearance. They are filled with high-pressurs nitrogen gas and controlled by full-displacement valving. The piston rod is chromed, polished and sealer with an o-ring instead of a nylon band. Super Shocks have a 1-3/16 piston bore. Super Struts have a 32mm bore.
TPiS Super Shocks and Super Struts come with a Lifetime Warranty.
