Yeah, the c6Z is a great shock for our cars. They made a huge difference for me when combined with the C6Z51 sway bars. Congrats on a good upgrade!

That upgrade was one of the most noticeable I have done. I did it in the first year I owned the car and it really improved how planted the car feels.

I feel what you're saying now when I drive. Before if I went over the slightest bump in the road, the car would just bounce and bounce up and down up front. Almost like John Candy's car in uncle buck. Now when I go over those same bumps on my street, the car is firm and secure. I highly recommend it now also to anyone
