Default Replacing shocks

I purchased a used 95 coupe and I was wondering what was the interval for replacing the shocks.

If I hit any ruts or bumps while cornering at highway speeds the rear end seems to jut out or break loose, could that be shocks? :eek:

I had the same problem in my '89. I replaced the tires then replaced the shocks. The tires helped a little the shocks did the trick. I used bilstens good luck.

Nice looking wheels what kind are they, how much do they cost and can you get them in chrome as an option?
