Shocks Opinion
Ok only thing I am really going to do to my car is lower it on stock bolts w/o cutting no bushings. Need to replace my shocks which should i go with.
1. Bilstien Setup (Sports) $300
2. C6 Zo6 Shocks. $202 Shipped
I don't do any tracking or dragging so what would be the best option. # 2 looks nice due to the price which gives me more money to spend on my rims and little accessories here and there.

I recommend going with the Bilstein sports. I think that they have a little more travel and seem to work better on lowered cars. If I don't have those facts correct, someone please let me know.

I have the Bilsteins and mine is lowered too. They give a great ride and rebound with a lowered car

Go with the Bilsteins. They will work very well on your lowered car.

I have the Bilstein Sport shocks. But they are a lil to firm for me so I'm changing to Bilstein HD shocks. BTW I have ZO6 sway bars.
