Hi guy's recently I noticed that some sound came from my front shoks, so I decided to change them. But the question is ,I have a AMG 18" rims with low profile tire 235/40/18 front and 265/35/18 rear. I want to know what kind of shock is better quality and give me a nice and comfortable drive.

 

if it's not lowered or anything, i always found the stock shocks to be the most comfortable...

 

bilsteins are really good. if you want a sportier feel which is what I recommend go with the sport ones. you can install these with the normal springs and it gives a comfortable ride with a sporty feel. keep in mind that they do make your ride a little stiffer.
the factory suspension is too bouncy for me.

 

noisy?or is it the sway bar drop link bushings?bilsteins are oem and new ones will improve the ride as much as can be improved with those low profile tires.
don't go with kyb way to stiff for street use.

 

Is The Car lowered?...If So go with either H/R or Bilstein SPORT shocks
as the shock travel is shorter with them...

Cars lowered with standard shocks can bottom the shocks out..

I have Bilstein Sports with 18s and H/R springs using #1 spring pads on my W210 ..Rides Great!

 

Ohlord, the OEM's are only designed to last for about 100 to 110k miles right? I've had a front end noise at low speed for years but everyone who looks at it swears my bushings are fine. Driving around Boston this weekend my right front end was rattling like a freekin Yugo. I think I'm defintely going to have my shocks replaced and those bushings looked at again. I have 105k on my car.
